Doctors document painstaking surgery to remove glass from man’s intestines… after bizarre sex act gone wrong
Doctors have successfully removed a large glass jar from a man’s intestine after a dazzling operation that carries an extremely high risk of death.
The man, who stuck the small glass in his back hallway during a bizarre sexcapade, could have bled to death or suffered fatal organ damage if the glass shattered inside him.
Still, the doctors managed to remove the vessel completely, so that not a single glass shattered into jagged shards.
Speaking about the case, representatives of the hospital that treated the patient, in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, said doctors should not judge patients based on their unconventional sexual tendencies.
“Remember that doctors are not the moral police,” said hospital spokesman Alexey Nikonov.

The case, reported in The sunwith x-rays showing that the glass jar was high in the man’s back passage and slowly moved towards the upper intestine.
Doctors managed to remove the glass jar, a condom and lubricant from his rectum.
Mr Nikonov added that although Russia has strict anti-LGBT laws, locals should not hesitate to seek help from doctors if they find themselves in a similar situation.
In Britain, taxpayers spend around £500,000 a year to help the NHS treat sexual assault victims, MailOnline has previously revealed.
Official data shows that hundreds of patients required medical assistance to retrieve items from their back passage.
Dozens of men had their penises cut loose after being constricted in various ways.
In total, there were 514 procedures for the ‘manual removal of foreign body from the rectum’ between April 2021 and March 2022, according to the latest NHS figures analyzed by MailOnline.
Of these 483 procedures, manual extraction was listed as the main procedure, while other episodes represented other, secondary procedures related to the incident.
Objects to be extracted were not specified.
According to a 2021 report, the average anal extraction costs almost £850 per object.
The study found that the number of cases where objects need to be removed from the rectum is increasing, with cases increasing mainly in men. According to NHS data, there were 514 procedures to remove objects from the rectum between April 2021 and March 2022
This means that removing stuck objects could cost the NHS more than £436,000 between April 2021 and March 2022.
The estimated £850 price tag for removing the items includes the anesthetics used in the procedure, the time healthcare staff spend treating the patient and the cost of a hospital stay.
Experts warn that inserting objects into that part of the body carries a number of risks beyond just an embarrassing trip to the hospital.
Lost objects can perforate the intestines, which can be fatal because material from the digestive tract can pass into other parts of the body and cause an infection.
Using a sex toy with a flared base is safer, according to the NHS, as it helps prevent it from getting lost inside.
