  • Title: Obstructive Bezoars of the Small Bowel Treated with Coca-Cola Zero through a Long Intestinal Tube and Endoscopic Manipulation.
    Author: Endo K, Kakisaka K, Suzuki Y, Matsumoto T, Takikawa Y.
    Journal: Intern Med; 2017 Nov 15; 56(22):3019-3022. PubMed ID: 28943577.
    Abstract:
    An 82-year-old Japanese man visited our hospital with abdominal fullness accompanied by lower abdominal pain. He presented with small bowel obstruction due to multiple diospyrobezoars. The bezoars were successfully removed without any surgical intervention by the administration of Coca-Cola Zero through a long intestinal tube and subsequent endoscopic manipulation. Such a combination may be the treatment of choice for small bowel obstruction due to bezoars.
