Abstract
|
|
|
|
Most foreign bodies in the lower genitourinary tract are self-inserted through the urethra. A diagnosis is made by clinical history, physical examinations, and imaging studies of the patient. The best method of removing a urethral foreign bodydepends on the size and mobility of the object. When possible, endoscopic and minimallyinvasive techniques of removal should be used. However, surgical retrieval of a foreign body may be required. We report 4 cases of foreign bodies in the urethra with a brief literature review.
