Abstract

Foreign bodies inserted urethral represent urological emergencies. Self-insertion of foreign bodies is a common practice, especially during states of pathological masturbation. Recently, presentations in emergency rooms with this type of pathology are becoming more frequent. Most of the time, the patient presents late, with the presentation being preceded by the onset of painful, inflammatory, or infectious symptoms. In this study we present the case of a male patient with self-insertion of a urethral foreign body that migrated to the urinary bladder, presented after a period of 15 years in the neurology ward, with neurological and infectious urinary symptoms.
