Özet
Penetrating head injuries are the main cause of intracranial foreign bodies. They can lead to complaints such as headaches and seizures at a later period. We report the case of a patient with sewing needles inserted within the parietal lobe. The primary complaint of the patient was epileptic seizures. The patient was treated with antiepileptic drugs. Surgical intervention was not considered. The removal of intracranial needles is still controversial in the literature. In our case, needles were not removed because the epileptic seizures were successfully treated with antiepileptic medication.
