Doctors in China have removed 29 magnetic beads from a man’s bladder after they were stuck there for more than 10 days.
The unidentified man had inserted the toy balls into his urethra one by one before the metal spheres slipped down and bundled up, a medic told reporters.
The patient went to a hospital in north-western China’s Shaanxi Province after allegedly seeing blood in his pee and feeling pain while urinating.

The news was reported by Jiangxi Net TV Station, citing staff from the Second People’s Hospital of Shaanxi Province.
According to the report, the man who lives in the provincial capital of Xi’an had experienced extreme discomfort before he rushed to the hospital.
He confessed that he had put some ‘small beads’ into his privates, but refused to tell doctors why he had done so.
An X-ray scan showed that the magnetic balls – a popular toy in China – had attracted each other in the man’s bladder and formed what looked like a bracelet.
Medics found a total of 29 beads inside the man’s body after giving him a medical checkup
The patient refused to tell his doctor why he had put the magnetic beads into his privates
Dr Qu Liming, a supervising urologist of the hospital, told reporters: ‘He said he had put them in one by one. Because they were magnetic, therefore they linked up.’
It is reported that the man had visited several hospitals, but declined to be treated there due to fears of surgery.
Dr Qu and his team eventually pulled out the beads from the man’s genitals through minimally invasive surgery.
He had started to see blood in his urine before rushing to seek medical attention, Dr Qu noted
Dr Qu said one of his patients had tucked a three-foot-long power cable into his genitalia. The wire eventually became tangled and formed a knot in the patient’s bladder, he told reporters
The patient has recovered from the operation, according to Dr Qu.
The medic warned men not to put objects into their urethra.
He said he had received many similar patients, including one man who had tucked a three-foot-long power cable into his genitalia. The wire eventually became tangled and formed a knot in the patient’s bladder.
