  • Title: [A case of intestinal trichobezoar].
    Author: Vergara Rodríguez J, Romero Vega N, Sarinana Natera C.
    Journal: Bol Med Hosp Infant Mex; 1976; 33(5):1041-5. PubMed ID: 973856.
    Abstract:
    Report is made of a case of an unusual localization of a trichobezoar in a 12 year-old girl, who presented vomiting and abdominal pain as chief complaints. She was found to have an 18 X 5 cm palpable abdominal mass, which upon surgery was localized in terminal ileum and in the pathology report was found to be a trichobezoar. The interest of this case is the unusual localization of a single bezoar and the fact that a resection of 25 cm. of small bowel had to be done, as it was found necrotic at the time of surgery.
