Retained Intra-abdominal Knife in a Self inflicted Stab

It is unusual to encounter a patient who stabbed his abdomen with a kitchen knife. A 25-year-old man was in police custody for 2 days. He stabbed his abdomen with a kitchen knife. He was brought to casualty with a retained knife in his abdomen. The knife had torn gastrocolic omentum and caused contusion on the transverse colon. His postoperative period was fair.
