Foreign bodies were detected in the rectum in four male patients with ages ranging from 36 to 64 years. The materials were an iron rod, a specially shaped wooden device, and in two cases, deodorant caps. They were extracted with the patients in lithotomy position after anal dilatation, under general anesthesia in three cases, and spinal anesthesia in one case. No procedure-related complications occurred and the patients were discharged 24 hours after the operation.
