trichobezoar
A trichobezoar is a mass of indigestible compacted hair or other fibres in the gastrointestinal system, typically the stomach, that a person has ingested. It is a common phenomenon in animals that lick their coats, but can also occur in humans, usually as a result of a psychological condition called trichophagia, where the person has a compulsion to eat hair. If not treated, trichobezoars can cause a range of health problems including malnutrition, weight loss, gastric ulcers, perforated stomach, and even death.
