"Doctors carried out a cystoscopy to clear the boy's urinary tract, but the treatment has failed because two more flies emerged out of his penis on Monday."

Ridiculously disgusting story, with photographs! NSFW unless your workplace has a strong stomach.

Ummm... how could the guy just be driving around like that? Wouldn't someone have seen and made him go to a doctor?!!!

Also, notice that the guy was Japanese. This only lends further support to the fact that they're strange people.

One of the nurses who works on the floor I volunteer at in the WPIC used to be a nurse for a neurosurgery unit at Presby. One patient who had brain surgery apparently fell asleep for several hours under a tree a few days after the surgery and his bandages fell off. Several days later he checked back in and said he thought it might be infected or something, so the resident took a look at it. He was shocked to see maggots crawling around. They put him back under and had to surgically remove them.

So apparently maggots in the brain are a more common occurence than you'd think.
