Title: Extraction of a Nail from Man's Head

Russian surgeons extracted a 15 cm nail from the head of a man in the city of Nizhny Tagil, in the Ural region of Russia, according to the media policy department of the Sverdlovsk region on Tuesday. They reported that the doctors removed a 15 cm nail from the head of a 78-year-old man. The operation was performed by neurosurgeons at the Nizhny Tagil city hospital, where the doctors managed to preserve the patient's eyesight, and the surgery was successful. The patient was admitted to the hospital with serious head injuries after falling to the ground. A CT scan revealed a 15 cm nail passing through the right temple, through the eye socket, to the left temple. The doctors explained that the condition was worsened due to damage to the dura mater of the brain and pressure on the eyeball. Currently, the man is preparing to be discharged from the hospital, with his health condition being monitored by the doctors.
