Abstract
A thorough exploration of traumatic wound is critical to accurately assess the severity of the injury. When it comes to glass-related injuries, the diagnosis of a glass foreign body is often prioritized over identifying any underlying damage. The authors report a case of peroneus longus tendon rupture caused by plate-glass accident that was misdiagnosed in the emergency department (ED) as a superficial laceration.
