Abstract
In this paper we describe a male patient who was presented to our emergency department with symptoms and signs suggestive of peritonitis, intraoperatively revealing a plastic foreign body inserted into rectum causing perforation of its upper part. He underwent trans-abdominal rectal repair and proximal fecal diversion. Patient was followed up and stoma closure was done after 2 months.
