The placement of foreign bodies into the rectum is an uncommon medical problem. The first aim of therapy is to extract the foreign body using the simplest method possible without harming the integrity of the intestine. We report a case of 65 year old schizophrenic male patient on antipsychotic therapy who was admitted to the emergency room with abdominal pain and constipation following insertion of a deodorant bottle in the rectum.
