A case of sting wounds of the oral mucosa caused by spermatophores of a raw squid is reported. The patient was a 61-year-old woman. She noticed pain of the oral mucosa immediately after eating part of a raw squid. Several milky white, club-shaped foreign bodies measuring 3 to 5 mm were stuck in the tongue, buccal mucosa, and floor of the mouth. These were not mobile and were hard to remove. The clinical diagnosis was sting wounds of the oral mucosa caused by spermatophores of a squid. These foreign bodies were excised together with the surrounding tissue under local anesthesia. Wound healing was uneventful. Histologically, the foreign bodies contained numerous spermatozoa and were identified as spermatothecae, which were ejected from the spermatophores of a raw squid.

Injury by a bear attack mostly occurs in the head and neck region and can be fatal, requiring immediate treatment. In addition to first-aid treatment, preventive measures against infectious and parasitic diseases are also necessary. We report two cases of multiple facial lacerations caused by the same black bear. Patient 1: A 51-yearold woman was attacked by a black bear while trekking and sustained multiple facial lacerations. She was successfully treated under general anesthesia 3 hours after the injury. Patient 2: A 65-year-old man was attacked by the same black bear when he tried to rescue the woman and sustained multiple facial lacerations as well. He was also successfully treated under general anesthesia 5 hours after injury. The clinical course of both patients was uneventful with no infection or sensory or motor nerve dysfunction.
