Description
Rapunzel syndrome is a rare form of gastric Trichobezoar extended to the intestine. There is little literature describing the complications associated with this condition. The diagnosis can be guided by the results of conventional radiography and ultrasound, but computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard, as it confirms the diagnosis and provides crucial information on its severity.
