Woman Lose a Thermometer in Her Bladder
I assisted the urologist on this case
At 10:00 a.m., on a weekday morning, a young woman was
brought into the operating room in a state of fright. Her X-rays revealed a
thermometer cross way inside her urinary bladder. When asked how did the
thermometer get into her bladder? She
stated, “My girlfriend and I were playing around with the thermometer to see
how hot we could get, and I lost the thermometer.”
Because of the position of
the thermometer in her bladder, the urologist could not remove it, and had to
get a surgeon to perform a major operation on this woman, to remove the
thermometer from her urinary bladder.
The urologist informed me that in all the many years of his
profession, he has never witnessed anything of this nature. He said, he has
removed match sticks from the urethral meatus of some males, who insert them in
their penis to maintain an erection.
*Foreign objects inserted into the urethral meatus, or any
part of the body orifices for sexual pleasures can be dangerous to do. It can
cause an infection that can lead to serious complication, resulting in a
medical procedure to remove the object or major operation.
