Transanal Rectal Foreign Body Removal Using a SILS Port

Abstract: Rectal foreign bodies are being detected more frequently, and their textures, sizes, shapes, and locations are critical considerations when removal and deciding on management plans. Many removal techniques have been described and various theories have been put forward to explain procedural mechanics. Here the authors report a case in which a transanal technique using a SILS port was successfully used.

“…The patient with perforation, peritonitis, or major injury of the rectum, a diverting colostomy should be made after removal of the foreign body [10]. The use of minimally invasive techniques for the removal of smooth foreign bodies has been described [12]. It avoids the need for laparotomy and decreases hospital stay for the patient.…”

“…Lake et al[4] in their experience cited several factors responsible for failure of transanal removal including the impaction of a an object longer than 10 cm, hard or sharp objects, objects that have migrated upward into the sigmoid colon and those that have been impacted for more than 2 d. There are specific indications for the use of emergency laparotomy for extraction of impacted objects including failure of attempts at transanal removal, presence of perforation and/or peritonitis[1,2,4,8,16]. The use of minimally invasive operative techniques for impacted rectosigmoid foreign bodies has been described which is a combination of laparoscopic downward milking of the object followed by per anal extraction[1,2,17-19]. This approach however is only recommended for smooth foreign bodies and if successful, avoids the need for a full laparotomy and provides the benefit of early discharge from the hospital[1,2,17-19].…”

“…Numerous objects including bottles, light bulbs, apples, rubber balls, spray containers, vibrators, and other phallic objects have been described [1,2] . Bi-manual manipulation under general anaesthesia is the mainstay of removal of such objects, although some authors advocate the use of polypectomy snares, obstetric forceps, achalasia balloons and even single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) port technique for difficult cases [2–5] .…”
