Nasoorbitoethmoid (NOE) complex defined as structure that surrounds important fine structure, the nasolakrimal drainage system and medial canthal ligament. It also contiguous with vital region including the orbit and the anterior cranial fossa so does the structure in it. Although the penetrating injuries of the NOE complex is rare, but it provides complicated treatment and sequels due to its location and the structure within it. We reported a case of penetrating injuries at the NOE complex in a 28 years old mal patient. The patient complains of pain in both eyes followed by a blurred vision on the left eye. Axial head CT scan showed smooth and firm edge corpus alienum with air density (-178 to -955 HU) got through the medial aspect of the left eye and emerge into left ethmoidale sinus, os vomer and the tip end at right ethmoidale sinus. The patient undergone surgical treatment to remove the corpus alienum and get good result after surgery.
