On March 20, a 34-year-old man was admitted to Hai Ha District Medical Center in Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam, with severe abdominal cramps. Because the patient’s pain was too severe to be questioned about his symptoms, the hospital staff performed an X-ray and ultrasound, which revealed a foreign body in the abdominal cavity, intestinal perforation and peritonitis. Doctors decided one of the best solution can be to perform surgery, remove the suspicious object and check out to alleviate the damage to the man’s intestines. After opening the patient’s abdomen, doctors were surprised to find that the foreign body was a live eel 30 cm long.

After removing the eel, doctors began removing the necrotic section of the big intestine, a delicate procedure with a high risk of infection attributable to its proximity to the rectal area. Fortunately, the surgery was successful and the patient’s condition was stable. After the procedure, he reported only slight abdominal pain, but he continues to be under statement in the hospital.

When asked how large an eel might have been in his stomach, the 34-year-old man couldn’t give a clear answer, but doctors imagine that the slippery animal crawled from the anus to the patient’s colon, bit through the intestine and got inside. Belly. However, what really shocked the hospital staff was the indisputable fact that the eel was still alive in the man’s body.

This strange case and a photo of an eel being removed from a patient’s stomach is eerily harking back to a xenomorph falling out of the stomach of a human host from the Alien movie.
