Surgeons at a hospital in India have been left baffled after pulling a 10cm nail from the bladder of a male patient after he had been housed there for an entire year.

Jagram started feeling discomfort in his bladder area a year earlier and went to Bhind District Hospital after his pain became excruciating.

Concerned about the man's symptoms, specialist surgeon Dr. Prateek Mishra ordered blood tests, as well as an ultrasound and X-ray.

Finally, they identified what their patient had been struggling with all along - and it wasn't for the faint-hearted.

It was unclear how the nail got stuck in Jagram's bladder (

To the doctors' surprise, the scan showed a four-inch nail sitting inside the patient's bladder.

But what still wasn't clear was how the iron nail ended up in the man's body.

With little information about how it might have happened, doctors had to ask quickly.
