I'm sure they meant a "babushka doll".

At the risk of admitting that I read this thread out of a sense of morbid curiousity, I think they were referencing the mimushka dolls where a series of progressively smaller dolls are nested inside a larger doll. Those would be the only dolls that I would recognize as distinctly russian.

Maybe they meant those russian nesting dolls shaped like eggs in which there are numerous smaller dolls each inside the next larger one.

It probably was a Russian matryoshka doll, but the reporter or the nurse who told him didn't know the right name.

One could see where if one were hanging curtains in the nude and happened to fall onto a matryoshka doll, tragedy could ensue.
