ABSTRACT

@#A transurethrally-inserted foreign body is a rare urologic case that may be brought about by deviant sexual behavior or mental disability. This is a case of a 42-year old male presenting with repeated episodes of inserting a twisted electrical wire into his urethra. He already underwent open transvesical extraction of intravesical screw two years prior. A pre-operative pelvic x-ray confirmed the length of the intravesical component of the electrical wire. Open transvesical extraction of the wire was done followed by urethroscopy to ensure the absence of a urethral injury. An open approach was chosen over an endoscopic one because of the significant intravesical component of the foreign body. The patient did not experience any post-operative complications such as fever and superficial wound infections. He was referred to psychiatry service cleared for any deviant behavioral or psychiatric conditions.
