RESUMO
A foreign body in the urinary bladder is an uncommon finding in urology emergencies. There are several ways in which intravesical foreign bodies can occur, including iatrogenic injuries, self-insertion for pleasure, sexual abuse, assault, and migration from adjacent sites. This case report is about an interesting presentation of a 36-year-old male who presented to the urology outpatient department with a burning sensation and dribbling while urinating for 1 month. An X-ray of the pelvis revealed multiple radiodensities (morphology was suggested as magnetic balls) in the pelvic soft tissues. Cystoscopy was performed and three-pronged forceps were utilized to remove the magnetic foreign bodies. The patient had an insignificant hospital course and was discharged with analgesics and antibiotics.
RESUMO
In recent years, there has been a rise in the number of COVID-19 cases and its complications. Central diabetes insipidus (central DI) is a rare but treatable manifestation of acute COVID-19 infection. This case reports the rapid onset of central DI in a 35-year-old male in less than two weeks post-COVID-19 infection. He made a complete recovery post-administration of desmopressin within one month. Prompt diagnosis, treatment, and periodic follow-up are hence the cornerstones of a successful recovery for a patient with central DI post-COVID-19 infection.
