Cystoscopic Extraction of a Whole Pen From the Bladder: A Case Report and Review of Bladder Foreign Bodies’ Treatment Options

Abstract

Foreign bodies (FBs) in the urinary bladder are relatively rare. FBs introduced through the urethra are the most common cause of bladder FBs and introduced for the purpose of sexual stimulation. Patients may be asymptomatic or presented with various lower urinary tract symptoms. Here we reported the management of a pen introduced inside the bladder of a young female patient.
