Hospital Doctors Remove 26-Inch Eel from Man’s Anus After It Bites His Intestine

A 31-year-old man in Vietnam suffered severe pain after stuffing a live eel up his anus, which then tried to bite its way out of his large intestine.

Horrified medics discovered the 26-inch eel via X-ray this past weekend and initially failed to remove it because the patient also had a lemon lodged in his rectum. Surgeons had to cut through his abdomen to extract the eel, and then remove the lemon. Without treatment, he would have died, but he’ll now have to live with a colostomy bag. This was the first time the hospital had to remove a live animal from inside someone.
