Abstract
While small gastric trichobezoars may be removed via gastroscopy, large trichobezoars require surgical removal by gastrotomy through abdominal incision. We present a case of a successful minilaparotomy removal of a giant (2500-g) gastric trichobezoar in a 15-year-old girl with marginal psychological disturbances.Entities:
