ABERDEEN surgeons had to remove a sex toy from a woman’s body that had been there for 10 years without her realising it.
The 38-year-old attended Aberdeen Royal Infirmary after suffering symptoms including severe weight loss, lethargy and shaking.
It was only after an x-ray that medics spotted the five-inch object.
The woman shocked the doctors by revealing that it had been 10 years since she had used the sex toy with her partner.
Doctors removed the object and the patient was later discharged from hospital.
The unusual case was reported in The Journal of Sexual Medicine.
