title: Phytobezoar following raisin ingestion in children.
abstract: A rare childhood phytobezoar is reported in a two-and-one-half-year-old male infant with bowel obstruction, following raisin ingestion. Complete recovery followed conservative treatment. It was preceded by passage of a large, bulky stool, containing numerous undigested, fluid-filled raisins.
