Abstract: | Penetrating injuries of the colon and rectum have been reported earlier and are often associated with injuries of adjacent viscera such as bladder, uterus or vagina, prostate and seminal vesicles as well as iliac vessels. But this case is rare not only regarding the mechanism of injury but also with respect to the depth of penetration, with the foreign body having almost reached the thorax after entry through the anal orifice. |
