A 32-year-old Caucasian male with a history of repeated self-injury drilled a hole in his skull using a power tool and subsequently introduced intracerebrally a binding wire from a sketchpad. An emergency craniotomy was performed around the site of cranial injury, and the foreign body was carefully extracted. The wire was located partially in the subdural space and partially in the right hemisphere of the brain. The patient made an excellent recovery and was referred to a psychiatrist for further treatment.

A 44 year old man was referred to the accident and emergency department by the psychiatric services, having claimed to have hammered several nails through his skull over a three month period. The patient had a long history of depression, personality disorder, and previous deliberate self-harm. He had remained well throughout this period and had been cleaning the wounds with weak antiseptic on a regular basis. He had concealed the injuries by wearing a hat. Two days prior to admission he had inserted a much larger 12.7 cm (5 inch) masonry nail and had developed left sided weakness and unsteadiness of gait.

Re: GooberMcNutly's article about the left-side weakness of the man who had driven nails into his own head...
A psychology book titled "Vampires, Werewolves, and Demons," told of an obsessive-compulsive blood drinker who gorged on blood from his arms, and when those veins dried up, punctured his own carotid artery so that a fountain of blood would arc into his mouth if he held his head just so. He finally developed paralysis on his left side from blood loss. [sigh]

Enough of this insane, deviant behaviour. I'm posting something wholesome, instead.
