One of the surgeons who performed the surgery Dr Binici, said:
‘During the surgery, we saw that one or two of the nails had passed through the stomach wall.
‘We saw that there were two metal pieces and two stones of different sizes in the large intestine.
‘We found that there were batteries, magnets, nails, coins, pieces of glass and screws. We cleaned his stomach completely.
‘It is not a situation we see in adults, it is mostly in childhood and unconsciously swallowed foreign bodies.
‘It can be seen in psychiatric patients, prisoners or abuse cases in the adult age group.’
Burhan told local media: ‘
My brother was referred to this hospital. After the checks performed here, he was operated on and these objects were removed from his stomach.’
‘I thank the doctors for their attention and support.’
