ABSTRACT

Although the cases of intravesical foreign body are rare, it should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms. In general, introduction of foreign bodies into the bladder may be self- insertion through the urethra, iatrogenic, migration from adjacent organ or a result of trauma. Here we evaluated a case of intravesical foreign body that emerged following removal of a catheter was evaluated in the light of current literature. (JAREM 2014; 2: 79-81)
