AbstractThe analysis of treatment results in 112 patients with foreign bodies in the rectum, aged from 16 to 80 years, was carried out. 99.1% of the patients were men. All the patients were examined and treated in proctology department of the Moscow municipal clinical hospital N 67 from 1969 to 1998. The examination was made by standard scheme, including rectal touch, rectoromanoscopy, X-ray and ultrasonic examinations. In 107 patients the foreign body was removed without surgery, 5 patients required laparotomy. When possible it was removed by fingers and also with use of forceps. When small foreign bodies could not be reached by finger, they were removed through rectoscope. Foreign bodies of big sizes, proximal end of which was in the sigmoid colon, were removed under anasthesia with the help of the assistant who fixed the foreign body through the abdominal wall in the left ileac region. In impossibility of the subject removal by these methods and presence of complications (perforation, peritonitis), laparotomy with subsequent transanal subject removal without colon section was performed, in case of perforation--with wound suturing or colostomy.
