Abstract EN
Trichobezoar is a rare condition that may pose a diagnostic challenge.
Patients with this condition often have an underlying psychiatric illness, and history may not be easily forthcoming.
The condition should be entertained especially in young females.
Delay in diagnosis may lead to futile complications.
We report a classic case of trichobezoar in terms of patient profile, presentation, and investigative findings.
