Abstract

Foreign bodies in the urinary bladder can produce a variety of storage and obstructive urinary symptoms and later lead to serious complications. It is very difficult to introduce long and flexible foreign bodies into male urinary bladder due to the peculiar anatomy of the urethra. We present the case report of a 29-year-old male patient who inserted a very long foreign body into his bladder for alleviation of symptoms of overactive bladder not responding to medications, which unfortunately led to further aggravation of his symptoms.
