Rapunzel Syndrome

Rapunzel syndrome is an extremely rare intestinal condition in humans resulting from ingesting hair. The syndrome is named after the long-haired girl Rapunzel in the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. Trichophagia is sometimes associated with the hair-pulling disorder trichotillomania. This syndrome is a rare and unusual form of trichobezoar. Since 1968, there have been only 64 documented cases in the literature. This syndrome occurs when the trichobezoar reaches past the small intestine, and sometimes even into the colon producing a long tail-like extension of hair.
