Despite numerous cases of trichobezoars reported in the literature, few Rapunzel syndromes have been described. Rapunzel syndrome is a rare case of bowel obstruction resulting from hair ingestion (trichobezoar). The obstruction can occur in any level of the intestinal tract. This syndrome is usually reported in patients affected by trichotillomania and trichophagia. We reported a case of Rapunzel syndrome in a 5-year-old girl diagnosed on an abdominal computed tomography scan and confirmed during surgery.
尽管文献中有许多毛发胃石的病例报告，但描述的长发公主综合征却很少。长发公主综合征是一种罕见的因毛发摄入（毛发胃石）引起的肠梗阻。梗阻可发生在肠道的任何部位。这种综合征通常发生在患有拔毛癖和异食癖的患者中。我们报告了一例 5 岁女孩的长发公主综合征病例，该病例在腹部 CT 扫描中诊断，并在手术中得到证实。
