Abstract
Self-insertion of foreign bodies into the male urethra is a rare presentation. We report a unique case of urethral insertion involving three AAA batteries and the resulting battery acid leakage and urinary obstruction. This report discusses the approach to management, extraction techniques and effects of battery acid within the male urethra.
