Beans in the wrong stalk: A case of urethral foreign bodies.

Placement of foreign bodies within the urethra has intrigued urologists for years. We present the case of a 30-year-old man who had self-inserted 6 kidney beans into his urethra for sexual pleasure. Conservative attempts at removal with bedside interventions were unsuccessful. The patient required operative intervention with cystoscopy and urethral foreign body retrieval. No additional trauma was appreciated and all beans were extracted. Management of patients with a urethral foreign body can be attempted with bedside extraction, however proximal or challenging objects may require surgical extraction via either endoscopic or open approaches.
