A woman needed a stray bullet removed from her clitoris after being accidentally shot.
The 24-year-old, from Somalia, was rushed to hospital in severe pain after the 2cm bullet came through her ceiling while she was sat in her living room.
The woman, who wasn’t named, had suffered the injury an hour earlier.
CT scans revealed the bullet had become lodged inside her clitoris after being fired into her vulva, meaning she required surgery to have it safely removed.
Publishing grisly images of her injury in the International Journal of Surgery Case Reports, doctors said they believe the case is the first of its kind.
‘To the best of our knowledge, this case is unique due to the bullet being retained in the clitoris’, they added.
The date of the incident was not revealed in the case report by medics at Erdoğan Hospital in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia.
On arrival to hospital, the woman told the obstetrics and gynecology team that she had been sat in her lounge when the stray bullet fell through the ceiling.
No other details of the incident were given.
