Alcohol bottle surgically removed from man’s rectum
31/05/2020, KATHELENE ANTONY,NAGAPATTINAM
In a bizarre case, an alcohol bottle was surgically removed from the rectum of a man hailing from Nagore here on Friday. The man, supposedly in an inebriated state, had inserted an empty bottle into his anal cavity and was unable to remove it, hospital sources said.
The 29-year-old man shocked hospital staff at the Nagapattinam District Headquarters Hospital when he arrived with severe pain in the abdominal area and rectum on May 28. An X-ray was taken and a glass bottle was found lodged in his body.
The inebriated man had inserted the bottle in his anal cavity on May 26, and had suffered from pain for over two days. After the pain became unbearable, he rushed to the GH.
Spinal anaesthesia was administered and in a two-hour surgery. The patient is now stable and is under observation.
