description | Urethral foreign bodies are rare in daily practice, especially in adolescents with no evident history of mental illness. The presentation is usually delayed and a wide variety of objects may be implicated. Treatment by minimally invasive procedures (endoscopy), if possible, is preferred to minimize bladder and urethral injuries and psychiatric evaluation is mandatory to detect an underlying mental disorder. Despite the available literature on self-inserted urethral foreign bodies; the case we report here of urethral self-insertion of a sewing needle in a 14 year-old boy for autoerotic stimulation is very rare.
