| Abstract | Introduction: Foreign body in the vagina is a common cause of vaginal discharge, which may be either purulent or hemorrhagic. Case Presentation: This problem may produce symptoms or be asymptomatic for long periods of time and may result from ignorance, accident, malice, psychotic tendencies, attempts at sexual stimulation or sexual abuse. The current report presents the case of a girl that had inserted a foreign body in her vagina probably due to childish prank. Conclusions: The clinicians should always think of foreign bodies in the vagina in cases of chronic, antibiotic resistant vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain especially in young girls. | en |
