An extraordinary case of trans-orbital penetrating injury is presented. A 42-year-old male was surprised while he was stealing into an apartment. While he was trying to escape through the window, he fell on a rod of the fence with not severe ocular and cerebral complications. We describe a unique presentation of a trans-orbital penetration injury that had a good outcome and not severe ocular and cerebral complications. After being transported at the S.M. Goretti Hospital in Latina, the rod was removed outside the operating room and the CT scan was performed. Patient underwent urgent surgery after stabilization of vital parameters.
