In the past I have shared some really wild medical cases but this one is by far the most crazy!
The story was first reported in 2009 although it occurred sometime in the 1990s.
It involved a woman from Rotterdam, Netherland admitted in the hospital due to severe stomach pains.
Soon after a series of x-rays revealed the culprit:
You don't have to be a radiologist to know there's some huge mass goin there.
But the nature of the mass is where it gets really wild. It was cutlery!
The surgeons who removed them counted 78 pieces. Yes. Seventy fucking eight pieces!
As the doctors noted, she suffered from some short of mental obsession and she was swallowing a few pieces after each meal.
Here's a photo of all the pieces the surgeons removed:
Apparently the woman suffered from some type of pica:
Pica is the craving or consumption of objects that are not normally intended to be consumed. It is classified as an eating disorder but can also be the result of an existing mental disorder.[3] The ingested or craved substance may be biological, natural or manmade. The term was drawn directly from the medieval Latin word for magpie, a bird subject to much folklore regarding its opportunistic feeding behaviors. source
According to the new stories from that time, the woman made a full recovery and she was responding well to the treatment for her mental illness...
I guess this story showcases how resilient the human body can often be. I'd never believe a human stomach could possibly fit, let alone survive, so many forks and shit... And yet it did.
Amazing!

Wow, 78 pieces of cutlery! That's unbelievable. I can't imagine the surgery involved. This is truly a bizarre case study in obsessive behavior.
Yeah it's crazy!
78 forks and spoons in one stomach, that ain't a medical condition Mr TrumpMan, that's a Fuckedical condition. How the hell did she make it to spoon 2 😳 I guess the human body is stronger than I thought
Yeah it's just so wild 😂😂😂😂
WTF……
Guess she needed more iron in her diet…..🤣🤣🤣

If they are sterling silver utensils we'd have a very unusual case of Stackitus to go with that mental disorder.
I am NOT a dietitian, and this is not dietary advice.

I thought it would be an animal, but that sure was alot of cutlery. I am glad that the issue was resolved, and she is getting treated.

It is complicated when a person has mental problems, but it is difficult to imagine a person swallowing spoons and forks without choking, and the stomach has acids, I imagine the abdominal pain of this person and he continues doing it again and again.
