Metal in stomach: a rare cause of gastric bezoar.

Malik Amjad Yasin1, Ghazala Nasreen Malik, Sikandar Ali Malik, Farooq Azam Rathore.   

Abstract

Bezoars are conglomerates of undigested organic matter, which forms a mass in the gastrointestinal tract. This report describes a patient who developed a gastric bezoar from ingesting a large number of metal objects in order to "treat" his pulmonary tuberculosis.
