8Yo Girl has Hairball Removed from Stomach
Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): An 8-year-old girl had a hairball formed in her stomach after the little girl regularly consumed pieces of her hair.
The girl was given a MRI scan to see what was in her stomach, and the medical team found the hairball. Fortunately, the hairball was then removed in an operation by a surgeon at Kantha Bopha Hospital.
According to a Facebook post, the hairball is also known as gastric trichobezoar, that occurs commonly amongst young children suffering from psychiatric disorders who eat their hair. The hair doesn't dissolve in the stomach and it will accumulate and cause inflammation and hemorrhage.
