– A man in Vietnam had a 2-foot-long live eel removed from his abdomen after he inserted it into his anus
– The eel had chewed through the man’s intestines in an attempt to escape
– Doctors at Viet Duc Hospital had to perform emergency surgery to remove the eel and a lime that the man had also inserted
– Surgeons performed a colostomy to prevent fecal matter from passing through the cut made by the eel’s bite
– This is not the first case of an eel being removed from someone’s anus in Vietnam this year
– Doctors warned against inserting live animals into the anus for sexual pleasure, as it can have unforeseeable and dangerous consequences.
