The Rapunzel syndrome: an unusual trichobezoar.

P J Wolfson, R J Fabius, A N Leibowitz.   

Abstract

We report the fourth and youngest patient in the literature with a trichobezoar extending from the stomach through the entire length of the small intestine to the cecum. The clinician must consider the possible presence of a "tail" in any patient presenting with a bezoar. Salient clinical features of trichobezoars are reviewed.
