Trichobezoar.
Trichobezoar is an uncommon condition often presenting, among other signs, with a history of trichotillomania and trichophagia. We report an unusual case of gastric trichobezoar with extension into jejunum in a patient with an unusual habit of ingesting hair plucked from other people's scalp.
