Rectal impaction with epoxy resin: a case report

Anil K Hemandas et al. J Gastrointest Surg. 2005 May-Jun.

Abstract

We describe a unique case of a patient presenting with rectal impaction following self-administration of a liquid used as masonry adhesive for anal sexual gratification. The solidified matter required laparotomy for its removal. Strategies for removing rectal foreign bodies are discussed as well as other consequences of inserting foreign material per rectum.
