Abstract
A foreign body located in the right postauricular area was removed 40 years after a shrapnel injury in 1943. The patient visited our clinic complaining of pain behind his right ear. X-ray examination showed a dense foreign body located extracranially adjacent to the S. C. M.
Under general anesthesia an iron fragment was removed.
