Abstract

Foreign bodies in the bladder and urethra have been already largely described either by their nature itself as well as by the circumstances of their introduction. If their presence often reveals dubious psychiatric behaviours, one must also evoke possible accidental introductions during transvesical surgery or migration from spaces adjacent to the bladder. The treatment of those foreign bodies can be sorted out through endoscopy or surgical approach.
