A Miracle Survival after Falling from Height: A Case Report

گزارش مورد
Case Report
Falling from height is an urban phenomenon and shows an important form of blunt trauma. We report an 18-year-old man who fell from 6 m height onto vertical steel rods in an under construction building. He went under surgery to remove two foreign bodies and was discharged on the 2<sup>nd</sup> day after surgery in good conditions. The objective of this report is to provide a definitive baseline to improve the incidence rate of fall from height. It is better to consult with key stakeholders in the workplace to gain a view on the key issues relating to fall from height. Similarly, it is good to use the available measurements in order to control and prevent those at risk.
