Abstract

Use of refined instruments for the removal of an intra-abdominal foreign body has enhanced the indication for operative laparoscopy. In particular instances, laparoscopy has proven more advantageous than laparotomy. This case report illustrates removal of an intra-abdominal rubber catheter via a laparoscopic procedure with a double puncture technique.
