A bladder stone containing a sewing needle was found in a young man with psychomotor deficiency. This case highlights the unusual foreign bodies that can form bladder stones.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Foreign Body Management

Background:

  • Bladder foreign bodies are uncommon but can lead to calculus formation.
  • Psychomotor deficiency can be associated with an increased risk of inserting foreign objects into the urinary tract.

Observation:

  • A 24-year-old male with psychomotor deficiency presented with pyuria, urinary obstruction, and bladder symptoms.
  • Pelvic X-ray revealed a bladder stone incorporating a sewing needle.

Findings:

  • The imaging confirmed a complex bladder stone with a radiopaque foreign body (sewing needle) as its nidus.
  • Analysis of the case focused on the diagnostic approach, the unique presentation, and treatment strategies.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering unusual foreign bodies in the differential diagnosis of bladder stones, especially in patients with cognitive or developmental impairments.
  • Effective management requires a thorough diagnostic workup and tailored therapeutic intervention for such complex cases.
