Abstract

We present the case of a 63-year-old man who had inserted a salami into his anal canal for sexual stimulation--the commonest reason for inserting foreign bodies--and who subsequently required a laparotomy for its removal. This common surgical problem requires a thorough medical history, an examination and the use of radiographs for management. Current techniques for removal of such objects are discussed.

Case report: urinary retention secondary to a foreign body in the male urethra.

We report the case of a male patient who presented to the Emergency Department with urinary retention secondary to a suspected foreign object in his urethra. We review the diagnosis and management of self-inserted urethral foreign objects in men. Emergent treatment is necessary in patients with urethral foreign objects. Prompt radiologic studies should be obtained because immediate bladder access and drainage is mandatory, especially in patients presenting with urosepsis or urinary retention. Endoscopic removal is the management of choice.

Intracranial sewing needle.

A 45-year-old patient was found to have an intracranial sewing needle, located in the left frontal lobe. The needle was detected incidentally after minor head trauma. The clinical and radiological findings suggested that it might have entered the brain through the anterior fontanelle.
