Boy Inserts 26 Magnet Balls in His Penis

Pics shows: The x-rays of the patient's urethra; Doctors have removed a string of magnetic balls from a schoolboy’s bladder after he shoved them up his penis and started peeing blood. The 11-year-old boy, somewhat ironically named "Pi Pi", inserted some 26 neodymium magnet toys known as "Buckyballs" up his urethra and was taken to hospital in Wenzhou City in China’s eastern Zhejiang Province after experiencing painful swelling as well as blood in his urine. Wang Yongbiao, paediatrician at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College, said X-ray scans showed the magnetic spheres lighting up inside the boy’s bladder and urethra. The medic said the Buckyballs caused a blockage that took up about three-fifths of the space in Pi Pi’s urethra tube, which helped explain the swelling and bleeding. All 26 balls, which had become stuck to each because of the magnetism, were removed in a surgery this week. Doctor Wang said: "Around 10 of the Buckyballs were inside his bladder; the others were stuck at the front of his urethra." Pi Pi has been kept home from school and will need about half a month to recover, the medic added. Doctor Wang explained that similar cases were common amongst children who are "curious" and "still getting to know their bodies."

A boy in China underwent surgery for two hours to remove 26 tiny metal balls from his bladder.

At a young age, many children receive toys and also have very curious minds.  The 11-year-old Chinese boy, who resides in Zhejiang Province in China, inserted these small, spherical magnets into his penis.  After dealing with the pain and his private organ bleeding, he was rushed to the Yuying Children’s Hospital in Wenzhou, where surgeons performed cystotomy.

The 26 magnetic balls were known as “neodymium magnets.”

 

 

The local pediatric surgeon, Dr. Wang Yongbiao, explained the surgical procedure in the video: “The balls are now aligned into two columns and got stuck in the posterior urethra area.”  Because the spherical balls attached to each other, it was difficult to remove them from the penis.  Dr. Wang continued, “each magnet ball has a diameter of three millimeters (0.12 inches) and when they align in two rows, its width doubles up to six millimeters (0.24 inches).”

 

The doctor had to push the magnets into the boy’s bladder before removing them using forceps.  It was difficult removing one magnet at a time because they had clustered in the bladder.  To remove the magnetic balls, Dr. Wang had to create a surgical incision in the bladder.

 

 

The child is recovering and Dr. Wang warned: “Children can easily swallow or place the magnet balls into their body parts due to the small size.  I had previously dealt with two similar cases in relating to the magnet balls.”
