ABSTRACT
The introduction of a foreign body into the urethra is an exceptionally rare occurrence. It is often secondary, either to erotic curiosity or to psychiatric disorders. The symptomatology is multiple and the diagnosis is aided by radiologic imaging. The extraction is most often done by endoscopic. The management of these patients must be done systematically and will need psychiatric assessment. We report the case of two patients who inserted a foreign body into their urinary bladder. One was 22-year-old and the second was 20-year-old and all with no history of psychiatric disorders. The first accidentally inserted a pencil into the urethra while trying to flatten a vulvar papule. The second inserted a piece of broom through playful games. The foreign bodies were extracted endoscopically in both cases under rachianesthesia. The postoperative course was uneventful and both patients were referred to a psychiatric clinic for evaluation after discharge.
