Scientists were baffled by a strange case: A 33-year-old male with a history of drug abuse had been experiencing significant sperm passage from his rectal with ejaculation for two years. According to a study entitled "A Curious Case of Rectal Ejaculation", published in Cureus Journal of Medical Science last month.
The patient was, in a very crude way, jizzing his butt.
Doctors said the man had suffered five days of testicular discomfort. They also noted a significant amount of urine and fertile sperm from his rectum.
The CT scan of the pelvis revealed that the man was suffering from chronic rectourethral Fistula. This rare condition is where there's an anatomical link between the urethra rectum.

These cases are often caused by other conditions, such as rectal cancer, prostate cancer, surgery, and severe trauma. Researchers note that many cases occurred during wartime.
This unusual passage caused the sperm to exit the rectum instead of its normal exit, the urinary tract.
It wasn't immediately obvious what caused it. According to the study, the man denied that he had undergone abdominal surgery, rectal manipulation, and penetration or any other type of trauma.
It was later discovered that the patient spent three weeks in a coma due to two years of use of phencyclidine and cocaine (better known by PCP or angel dust). Researchers suggest that the Foley catheter, which is a flexible tube used for draining urine in patients admitted to hospital, could have caused severe trauma.

The hole was successfully sealed by the team. The team also used a catheter to temporarily permit the man to go to the bathroom.
The patient made a complete recovery.
What's the bottom line? One, avoid illicit drugs to ensure you don't become comatose.
According to researchers, this case highlights the importance for health care professionals of being mindful when using seemingly benign therapies like Foley catheters.
