Extraction of foreign body from the urinary bladder using nephroscope: A case report of endoscopy treatment

Abstract

Transurethral foreign bodies (FBs) in the urinary tract are rare findings in a clinical setting. The most common cases are reported for FBs in the urinary bladder. The present report similarly aimed to examine a whole pen as a FB with a discussion about symptoms and complexities. Here, we significantly reported the management of pen extraction from the bladder of a female patient using nephroscope and proposed success with possible recommendations for treatment in future operations.
