Rapunzel syndrome is an uncommon form of trichobezoar (a collection of ingested hair in the stomach that fails to pass through the intestine) with an extension of hair into the small bowel. The authors report in the present article a case of Rapunzel syndrome in a 10-year-old Thai girl with an asymptomatic abdominal mass incidentally detected during a hospital visit. She did not have nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, weight loss, or any other symptoms. A movable, firm and smooth epigastric mass 10 x 12 cm in size was found upon examination. Eventually the trichobezoar mass was surgically removed after a failed endoscopic removal.
长发公主综合征是一种罕见的毛粪石症（即摄入的毛发在胃内积聚且无法通过肠道排出），毛发会延伸至小肠。本文作者报告了一例10岁泰国女孩的长发公主综合征病例，该女孩在医院就诊时偶然发现有无症状腹部肿块。她没有恶心、呕吐、腹痛、体重减轻或任何其他症状。检查发现上腹部有一个可移动、质地坚硬且表面光滑的肿块，大小为10×12厘米。最终，在内镜切除失败后，通过手术切除了毛粪石肿块。
