ABSTRACT = {Not uncommonly, hostile prison environments can lead 
desperate prisoners to place foreign materials into natural 
orifi ces in an effort to gain transfer to an outside healthcare 
facility. In this article, we present a case series of urethral 
foreign body insertion of varying burdens and durations 
requiring transfer to our facility for surgical management. 
Endoscopic retrieval was the initial management in each 
case; one case required conversion to open cystotomy for 
complete removal due the orientation, amount of inserted 
foreign body, and erosion into the proximal urethral and 
bladder urothelium.},
