This 24-year-old male locked himself out of his house. He attempted to punch out a window in his garage door with his elbow and sustained right arm lacerations. His only complaint is multiple lacerations of the forearm, no shoulder pain and no wrist pain. Over the area of the olecranon there is a 3 cm superficial laceration. 

There are also noted to be several simple lacerations distally: approximately four measuring 1 cm each and three others measuring 2 cm each. There is noted to be a 5 cm laceration involving deeper layers of skin. Each wound was vigorously irrigated and draped individually. All wounds were closed with simple sutures except the 5 cm laceration, which required intermediate repair. The patient tolerated the procedure well.
