Abstract
Trichobezoar is a clinical condition where hair accumulates in the gastrointestinal tract. Patients with trichobezoar present with a history of nausea, pain, vomiting, and occasionally with signs of acute abdomen. We report a case of trichobezoar that presented with gastric perforation and peritonitis which required laparotomy and longitudinal gastrotomy for evacuation of the trichobezoar.
