Doctors at a hospital in Muzaffarnagar removed at least 62 metal spoons from a patient’s organ, identified as 32-year-old Vijay. Interestingly, they only had a cable. Information taken from the “Page not found” page of the Extra portal.

After recovering from anesthesia, the Indian said he had been eating dishes for a year, surgeon Rakesh Khurrana told the ANI news agency.

The patient will receive psychological support. In recent years, he had problems with drugs. According to the Zee News website, Vijay has already been hospitalized in a rehabilitation center.

In a similar case, a 36-year-old man from Jodhpur (Rajasthan, India) swallowed a 63 rupee (local currency) coin, apparently in a state of depression.

Imaging tests found a “metal lump” in the patient’s stomach. Within two days, during various endoscopic procedures, the coins were removed.
