Introduction: Rectal foreign bodies (RFB) pose a challenge to emergency physicians. Patients are not often forthcoming, which can lead to delays to intervention. Thus, RFBs require a heightened clinical suspicion. In the emergency department (ED), extraction may require creative methods to prevent need for surgical intervention. Case Report: The authors present a case of a successful extraction of a RFB in the ED and review of the literature. Conclusion: Retained RFBs are an unusually problematic reason for an ED visit. Thus, it is important for emergency physicians to be comfortable managing such cases appropriately.

The incidence of esophageal impacted denture is proportionately increasing as there is increasing number of people wearing denture in current days. Impacted denture has to be removed as soon as possible because the delay can lead to complications. The successful removal of impacted denture in the esophagus in a patient is reported, with a review of the literature. A 52-year-old Malay lady complained of dysphagia with no history of foreign body ingestion. Following unsuccessful attempts of removal via a rigid esophagoscope, open surgery was performed. Without further delay, the impacted denture was removed by cervical esophagotomy, and the patient recovered uneventfully. Esophageal foreign bodies are usually removed by endoscopy. However, in situations where this appears potentially hazardous, such as with impacted denture, open surgical extraction that is promptly performed is a safer option.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 03 July’21 Page: 362-365
