  • Title: Aluminum hydroxide gel bezoar--CT diagnosis.
    Author: Sussman S, Goldberg RP, Glotzer DJ.
    Journal: J Can Assoc Radiol; 1985 Jun; 36(2):148-9. PubMed ID: 4019559.
    Abstract:
    An obstructing aluminum hydroxide gel bezoar was first recognized on a retrograde gastrografin study through an ileostomy. In retrospect, a computed tomographic (CT) scan had demonstrated the bezoar as a high density intraluminal mass surrounded by somewhat less dense contrast material distending the bowel. A CT image of a phantom made of aluminum hydroxide gel surrounded by gastrografin was remarkably similar.
