During surgery at a hospital in the Indian state of Jaipur, Doctors found seven toothbrushes and two iron wrenches from the stomach of a young man, which is being considered one of the rare events in medical history.
According to Indian media reports, the 26-year-old young man had been complaining of severe stomach pain for five days, due to which his family immediately brought him to the hospital. Seeing the patient’s critical condition, the doctors conducted various medical examinations and sonography, the results of which surprised everyone.
The reports revealed that there were several hard and pointed objects in the young man’s stomach. According to the hospital’s senior surgeon, these objects had reached the inner wall of the stomach and could have caused a life-threatening complication at any time. In view of this danger, the doctors decided to perform an immediate operation without wasting time.
This complex surgery lasted for more than two hours, during which the doctors carefully removed 7 toothbrushes and 2 iron rods from the young man’s stomach. According to the surgeons, if there had been any further delay, the situation could have taken a very dangerous turn.
Doctors say that the young man suffers from mental problems and used to swallow objects that were not edible. After the surgery, the patient’s condition is said to be improving and he has been kept under further treatment and psychological supervision.
