A bezoar is a mass of indigestible material. Bezoars can present with a gradual onset of non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms including abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. However, bezoars can result in more serious conditions such as intestinal bleeding or obstruction. Without quick recognition,
The case report describes a 13 years old girl, who presented with 3 days history of nausea. She had a hard palpable mass in abdomen and anaemia. There was a history of hair ingestion for the past 3 years, which gave the first clue to the diagnosis of trichobezoar. Radiology helped diagnose the
Bezoars are the most common foreign bodies of the gastrointestinal tract. Clinical manifestations vary depending on the location of the bezoar, from no symptoms to acute abdominal syndrome. The ingestion of cling film, which is used for preserving food, may lead to a mechanical obstruction of the
BACKGROUND
We aimed to present a patient with gastric pouch bezoar after having a bariatric surgery.
METHODS
Sixty-three years old morbid obese female had a laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery 14 months ago. She has lost 88% of her excess body mass index; but started to suffer from nausea,
Primary small bowel bezoars are rare and may cause acute abdomen due to small bowel obstruction (SBO). A 70-year-old Japanese woman presented to the emergency room with abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. The patient reported that she had eaten a large amount of highly-concentrated, agar dissolved
Background: Bezoars can be found anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Esophageal bezoars are rare. Esophageal bezoars are classified as either primary or secondary. It is rarely reported that secondary esophageal bezoars caused by
Gastric bezoar is an uncommon complication following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP). We report two cases of bezoar formation that occurred following laparoscopic RYGBPs. In both cases, the patients presented with abdominal pain, nausea, and "frothy" vomiting. The patients were successfully treated
Gastric bezoars may develop in the proximal pouch after gastric restriction, eg. by laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB). To date, only two centers have reported this rare complication. We report an additional case with band slippage, to emphasize that bezoars should be considered in the
Background: Small bowel obstructions (SBOs) are common following a large intra-abdominal operation; however, SBOs caused by bezoars are unreported in patients following liver-kidney transplantation procedures, particularly in
Gastric bezoars may occur in the normal stomach as a result of ingestion of various objects which do not pass through the pylorus. Most gastric bezoars occur as a complication of previous gastric surgery in which there is a loss of normal pyloric function, hypoperistalsis, and low gastric acidity.
We presented a case of a 64-year-old female patient with a history of gastric bypass that presented with bowel obstruction due to a bezoar. She arrived at the emergency department, referring to severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Abdominal X-ray reported gastric distention and hydro-air
The nausea and vomiting that can complicate advanced diabetes is often attributed to impaired gastric motility. Not all patients with diabetic gastropathy show marked abnormality on gastric emptying studies, however. The mechanism remains uncertain, although cases complicated by a bezoar may respond
Trichobezoars are difficult to remove endoscopically, often cause nausea and vomiting, and can result in small-bowel obstruction. A patient with a trichobezoar presented to our clinic with symptoms of partial small-bowel obstruction. Multiple attempts at flexible endoscopic removal were
Bezoars are concretions of undigested material in the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the stomach. Duodenojejunal localization of bezoars is exceptional. We report a case of a 27-year-old woman who experienced nausea, vomiting and severe abdominal pain for one week. By palpation a mobile
Bezoars usually present as a mass in the stomach. One of the uncommon causes of bezoars is ingestion of plaster in a suicidal attempt. We present here two patients with acute formed gastric bezoars due to plaster ingestion. Their main complaints were abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Clinical
