CRAZY THINGS FOUND IN A HUMAN STOMACH
Added on: 2nd Apr 2015
BOTTLE
A man went to a Chinese hospital complaining of abdominal pain.
What doctors found was shocking and quite embarrassing for the
poor fellow. Apparently, a bottle was the cause of the abdominal pain
which had surgically removed.
CUTLERY
Margaret Daalman from the Netherlands went to the hospital with a
stomach ache. Surgeons in Rotterdam hospital sent her for an
X-ray and were shocked when the picture showed 78 different items
of cutlery in the 52-year-old woman’s stomach. Thankfully,
she only ate spoons and forks, no knives.
BATTERIES
There are several cases of children eating batteries every year.
In December 2013, for example, a 13-month old boy from Leicester,
died from internal bleeding after swallowing a battery he found at
his nursery school.
LIVE FROGS
Yang Dingcai from southeast China says 40 years of swallowing live
frogs and rats has helped him avoid intestinal issues and made
him strong.
NAIL
Chinese carpenter Li Xiangyang was holding a nail between his teeth
when he suddenly coughed and swallowed it. He was taken to a
hospital where doctors x-rayed him and found the nail was in his
right lung. Professor Hu Ke attempted to remove it by feeding a
bronchoscope down his throat. But, just as he was on the verge of
pulling the nail out, Li coughed again and sucked it right back.
This time it ended up in his left lung. Hu tried again but, at the last
minute, Li involuntarily swallowed and the nail disappeared again.
Eventually, doctors located the nail and were finally able to remove
it with a gastroscope clamp.
HAND GRENADE
An X-ray showed a hand grenade in a terrorist´s stomach.
Apparently he didn’t think his plan through very well because he
had no way of actually detonating the grenade.
SPOON
A 33-year-old woman attempted to use a spoon to remove a fish
bone lodged in her larynx. She accidentally swallowed the spoon and
had to be taken to the operating room to have it surgically removed.
LIVE BULLET
A four-year-old girl from the city of Thane, India, swallowed a live bullet
at Lokmanya Nagar. The girl was playing in the vicinity when she
found the bullet lying on the ground. Presuming it to be a chocolate,
she picked it up and put it in her mouth. The girl was admitted to a
hospital where doctors successfully managed to get the lead
material out without a surgery
DRUGS
A Nigerian, caught at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia,
was taken to a hospital where an X-ray showed the presence of a
foreign lump inside his stomach. The lump was later found to consist
of 54 capsules of methamphetamine.
