The CT appearances of an unusual type of trichobezoar which causes the Rapunzel syndrome are described. This syndrome is characterized by intestinal obstruction secondary to a bezoar possessing a tail which extends to or beyond the ileo-cecal valve. Most cases of bezoar are diagnosed with plain films or barium meal, but CT may be requested in patients who present with abdominal masses. The Rapunzel syndrome may be diagnosed with a combination of the CT findings and the history.
描述了一种导致长发公主综合征的罕见类型毛粪石的CT表现。该综合征的特征是由具有延伸至回盲瓣或超过回盲瓣的尾巴的粪石引起的肠梗阻。大多数粪石病例通过平片或钡餐诊断，但对于出现腹部肿块的患者可能会要求进行CT检查。长发公主综合征可通过CT表现和病史相结合来诊断。
