lntroduction: Trauma is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in the World. Thoracic Trauma is responsible for 25% of all the deaths. Although bluntthoracic traumas are more common than penetrating thoracic traumas, pen etrating thoracic traumas are more likelyto require immediate life-saving interventions than blunt injury.Case Report: Penetrating thoracic trauma by circular saw is defineci very rare in the literature. In this article, we present a rare and interesting penetrating thoracic trauma cause which opened a window on anterior chest wall, created open pneumothorax and treated successfully in our department.Conclusion: We believe that circular saw injury, a rare cause of penetrating thoracic trauma,can be successfu lly treated with the correct and timely intervention in theemergency department.
