Abstract
Bezoars are food or fiber concretions of the alimentary tract, which infrequently cause intestinal obstruction. The authors describe a case of a 7-year-old child with pica in whom a synthetic fiber bezoar obstruction of the small intestine developed at the site of a previously stapled intestinal anastomosis.Entities:
