title: [Bezoars in childhood].
abstract: Hospital Infantil de México reports 13 cases of bezoars out of which, 12 were trichobezoars and one fitobezoar. Bezoars are uncommon, but they must be known by the pediatrician as well as by the children surgeon in order to be able to reach a diagnosis and give the treatment. A complete review of the main points is given.
