AbstractWe have described two cases involving unusual rectal foreign bodies and their subsequent removal. Suggestions are included to aid in the removal of colorectal foreign bodies, as well as references to provide for the appropriate management of these cases in the emergency department. Primary care providers need to be aware of the issue of colorectal foreign bodies as a clinical entity and the fact that their occurrence is expected to continue to rise dramatically. Patient education of the dangers inherent in the insertion of objects into the colorectal area should be more prevalent. At the very least, all physicians need to be aware of anal eroticism and the necessity to take a careful medical history.
