Doctors document painstaking surgery to remove glass from man’s bowel…after bizarre sex act gone wrong

Doctors successfully removed a large glass jar from a man’s bowel following eye-watering surgery that carries an extremely high risk of death.

The man, who inserted the pint-sized glass into his back passage during a bizarre sexcapade, could have bled to death or suffered fatal organ damage if the glass shattered inside him. 

Yet, doctors were able to remove the vessel in full, not allowing any glass to shatter into pointy shards.

Speaking of the case, representatives from the hospital that treated the patient, in  Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, said doctors must not judge patients for their unconvention sexual proclivities.

‘Remember that doctors are not the morality police,’ hospital spokesperson Alexey Nikonov said.

The case, reported in The Sun, featured X-ray images showing the glass jar was high inside the man’s back passage, slowly moving towards the upper bowel.

Doctors managed to retrieve the glass jar as well as a condom and lubricant from his rectum. 

Mr Nikonov added that despite Russia having strict anti-LGBT laws, locals should not hesitate seek help from medics if they fin themselves in a similar situation. 

In the UK, taxpayers fork out around £500,000 per year to help the NHS treat victims of sexual mishaps, MailOnline has previously revealed. 

Official data shows hundreds of patients required medical assistance to extract items lodged in their back passage.

Dozens of men needed their penises cutting free after getting them constricted in various ways.

A total of 514 procedures for the ‘manual removal of foreign body from rectum’ between April 2021-March 2022, according to the latest NHS figures analysed by MailOnline. 

Of these 483 procedures listed the manual extraction as the main procedure, with other episodes representing other, secondary, procedures related to the incident.

Objects that needed to be extracted were not specified.

The average anal extraction costs almost £850 per object, according to a report published in 2021.

The study found the incidence of objects having to be removed from rectums is on the rise with cases particularly growing in men. There were 514 procedures to remove items out of rectums between April 2021 and March 2022, according to NHS data

This means removing stuck objects potentially cost the NHS more than £436,000 between April 2021 and March 2022.

The £850 estimated price tag of removing the objects includes anaesthetic drugs used in the procedure, the time health staff spent treating the patient, and the cost of a hospital stay. 

Experts warn that the insertion of objects into that area of the body carries a number of risks beyond just an embarrassing trip to hospital.

Lost objects potentially perforate the bowel which can be deadly as material from the digestive tract can spill into other parts of the body, causing an infection.

Using a sex toy with a flared base is safer, according to the NHS because it helps stop it from getting lost inside.
