SÃO PAULO — Doctors will remove four of the five sewing needles remaining in the body of a 2-year-old Brazilian boy, who was stuck by his stepfather in an alleged plot to get back at his wife.
Ana Neri Hospital spokeswoman Susy Moreno says doctors will operate to remove needles from the boy’s underarm, thorax, abdomen and thigh.
Of 31 needles found in the toddler’s body, only one will be left after this surgery, doctors said. A needle in the boy’s pubic bone does not pose any danger to his life.
