A package of marijuana has been retrieved from the nose of a man 18 years after he smuggled it into prison, in what doctors have described as the first case of its kind.
According to the team who reported on the case in the British Medical Journal, the man received the drugs wrapped in a balloon from his girlfriend who was visiting him in prison. He placed the drugs in his right nostril in order to evade detection from guards, but was later unable to retrieve them after pushing the package deeper into the cavity.
"Smugglers lobbed dead rats stuffed with drugs into prison yardThe rhinolith was removed from the man's nose under general anesthetic, and a subsequent study revealed that it contained a"rubber capsule containing degenerate vegetable/plant matter." "On follow-up and specific questioning, the patient was able to recall an incident that occurred 18 years prior, while he was incarcerated," the report states.
