Abstract
A trichobezoar is a mass of cumulated hair ingested the gastrointestinal tract. Stomach is the common site of occurrence. Intestinal obstruction due to trichobezoar is extremely rare. We report the case of a 16-year-old girl with trichobezoar obstructing the stomach in one and the ileum in another.
