A plastic toothbrush case was removed from the rectum of a prison inmate in the emergency department using a rigid sigmoidoscope and a fogarty catheter. The patient was subsequently discharged from the emergency department. Previous literature regarding rectal foreign bodies has emphasized inpatient treatment and tended to ignore the potential value of the emergency service. Guidelines for selecting appropriate patients for emergency department management are presented and basic principles for safe outpatient removal are reviewed.
在急诊科，使用硬式乙状结肠镜和福格蒂导管从一名监狱囚犯的直肠中取出了一个塑料牙刷盒。该患者随后从急诊科出院。以往关于直肠异物的文献强调住院治疗，往往忽视了急诊科的潜在价值。本文提出了选择适合在急诊科处理的患者的指南，并回顾了安全门诊取出的基本原则。
