They think they were inserted into Luo Cuifen's body when she was a baby by grandparents upset she was not a boy.
Some of these needles have penetrated vital organs, such as the lungs, liver and kidneys. One has even broken into three pieces in the woman's brain.
The needles were discovered only when Ms Luo went to hospital complaining of blood in her urine.
She was given a routine X-ray, which revealed the needles. Up until then she had been in good health.
Xu Mei, the chief doctor at the hospital, saidthat removing the needles would be a long, complicated procedure requiring several operations. The first of those is expected to take place next week when seven needles will be removed.
