Tetanus after a penetrating injury to the right globe: a case report

A 24-year-old man attended the emergency department with a penetrating injury to the right globe after a road traffic accident. He later contracted tetanus for which he was given human tetanus immunoglobulin. Although it is rare, tetanus is life-threatening and a thorough immunisation history should be obtained before treatment of tetanus-prone injuries.
