主 题:Bezoar Stomach Gastric Endoscopy Foreign body Gastric polyps Plastic
摘 要:Foreign bodies and bezoars are commonly encountered in children. We describe a child aged 11 years who ingested large amounts of plastic material used for knitting chairs and charpoys. The conglomerate of plastic threads, entrapped food material and other debris, formed a huge mass occupying the whole stomach. Chronic irritation of the gastric antral mucosa led to ulceration and formation of hyperplastic polyps. We labeled this new entity as a “plastobezoar. The entire bezoar could be removed endoscopically.
