Rectal route with local or general effects, is an interesting possibility of treatment. Easy use and rapid absorption are two major advantages. But this therapeutic modality is not riskless. We report a case of septicemia with peri-rectal cellulitis which was generated by two ano-rectal ulcerations after using Trophires suppositories. The infection was favoured by local application of cortisone. Our original observation, with ano-rectal ulcerations and short use of suppository, confirms the idea of short-term treatment stopped in case of unwanted symptom.
