Yesterday morning, an 11-year-old primary school student was taken to the Emergency Department of the Volos Hospital after a doorknob was impaled on his hand. According to gegonota.news, the child was taken to the hospital with the knob stuck in his arm, while he was screaming in pain.

“We have never seen such an incident before. The knob hung from his hand in the upper arm area. They explained to us that he was at school. The children were playing in the corridor and someone knocked on the door with force, causing the knob to be nailed to the student who was behind the door, inside the classroom. The pommel wasn’t sharp, it looked like it was old, but it wedged into his arm. Fortunately, no vessels had been tampered with,” said a doctor from the Emergency Department.

The child was immediately taken to the operating room and a removal operation was performed. According to the information from the doctors, the child is in good health and was discharged.

In fact, the doctor who undertook to operate on it stated that the knob was removed and was intact so he gave it back to be re-screwed.
