"Bizarre Discovery: Chopsticks Found Lodged in Man's Brain Causing Months of Severe Headaches"

TL;DR Summary
A 35-year-old man in Vietnam who had been suffering from severe headaches for five months discovered that a pair of chopsticks had been lodged in his skull. CT scans revealed tension pneumocephalus, a potentially life-threatening condition causing increased intracranial pressure. The man recalled being involved in a fight where he was possibly stabbed in the face with the chopsticks. Doctors successfully removed the chopsticks through endoscopic surgery and sealed a fistula in his brain, and the patient is now in stable condition.
