Abstract
The presence of a foreign object in the bladder or urethra may cause a serious problem to the patient. Most of the cases are self-inserted as a result of sexual gratification. Here, we present a rare case of self introduction of the wire of a mobile charger within the bladder and urethra for sexual gratification. This case has yet to be reported in any previous work.
