Foreign body in the rectum: A challenge for the emergency physician.
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care 2016 April
Foreign body (FB) within the rectum occurs infrequently and its management is challenging for the emergency physicians due to variation in type of objects, host anatomy, time of insertion, and amount of local contamination. Usually, the presentation is late after multiple unsuccessful attempts for the removal of the FB by patients themselves at home.
