Abstract

Trichobezoars are among the rare foreign bodies of the gastrointestinal tract. They occur more often in girls who have a bad habit of biting and swallowing hair. Gradually in the stomach forms a hard-to-separate ball of hair, resembling a tumor. In our practice, we observed two. cases of trichobezoar gastrointestinal tract in girls 7 and 8 years.
