Here is a case of a pencil in the bladder of a woman with mental retardation. CASE REPORT: The patient is a 34-year-old woman who referred to a gynecologist with vague symptoms of abdominal and lower abdominal pain and a foreign body was detected in ultrasound on bladder. The patient was then referred to a urologist. There was no noteworthy point in the radiography. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis was performed to confirm the nature, shape and position of the probable foreign body, and a 71 mm long object was observed. The patient then underwent cystoscopy and finally, after observation of the foreign body (which was a pencil), the pencil tip was fractured by a mechanical crusher and through the hole created in the tip of the pencil, it was held by a grasper and was removed longitudinally. The patient was discharged with oral antibiotics.  The symptoms were resolved and the patient had no complaints in the follow-up. CONCLUSION: Considering the case reported here, it is necessary to examine abdominal and pelvic pain or urinary symptoms (even nonspecific ones) in people with mental retardation in terms of the presence of foreign body in the bladder and pelvis.E MoudiMM DarziH KamaliniaBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlebladderforeign bodylower urinary tract symptomsMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 21, Iss 1, Pp 201-206 (2019)
