Rectal foreign body impaction in infancy is extremely rare, and the literature does not describe a standard treatment procedure. Extraction by fiberoptic rectosigmoidoscope is advocated as the treatment of choice but is not free of possible complications. It should be also taken into consideration that the type of foreign body has an impact on the timing of treatment. We report a 50-day-old male presenting with a retained broken tip of a mercury thermometer in the rectum. A novel method of diagnostic approach and treatment is discussed.
婴儿期直肠异物嵌顿极为罕见，文献中未描述标准的治疗程序。提倡使用纤维直肠乙状结肠镜进行取出作为首选治疗方法，但并非没有可能的并发症。还应考虑到异物的类型对治疗时机有影响。我们报告一例50天大的男性，直肠内留有破损的体温计尖端。本文讨论了一种新的诊断方法和治疗方法。
