Abstract :
Background: Emergency surgeons seldom encounter cases of foreign body ingestion/insertion. Both children and adults may present with ingestion or insertion of foreign body inside body cavities
Case presentation: Two foreign nationals were brought by customs officer to emergency department with alleged history of insertion of cocaine packets through anus. Any subjects that caused omission from patients were admitted and rectal examinations were carried out. Rectum was filled with cocaine capsules which were retrieved manually as far as we could reach.
Conclusion: It is likely that the use of various objects for anal eroticism is increasing, resulting in an increased incidence of retained rectal foreign bodies.
