Splinters in the urine.
A nine-year-old boy sustained a penetrating injury to the perineum. He later presented with urinary tract infections and a history of passing splinters in the urine. Investigation revealed a foreign body in the urinary bladder, and at suprapubic cystotomy splinters of wood and fragments of cloth were removed.
