RESUMO

Resumen: Introduction: Trichobezoars are an intraluminal accumulation of ingested hair. The Rapunzel syndrome refers to the presence of gastric trichobezoars which extend to the small intestine together with trichotillomania and trichophagia, that occur predominantly in psychiatric patients of pediatric age. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical course and resolution of this syndrome in a case report. Likewise, we provide information about the family environment and psycho-emotional context of the patients and help the reader identify similar circumstances in their clinical practice. CASE REPORT: Female 14-year-old patient with history of trichotillomania and trichophagia of two years of evolution, who consulted for epigastric pain associated with weight loss, nausea, and postprandial fullness. During the physical examination, the patient was found to have bald patches in the scalp along with a palpable mass that seemed to be confined to the gastric limits. Imaging studies revealed gastric occupation due to a bezoar formation. The patient was treated surgically with laparotomy and gastrostomy, and two simultaneous trichobezoars were removed from the patient´s stomach and duodenum, the patient also underwent psycho-emotional professional counseling. CONCLUSION: Rapunzel´s syndrome, far for being a merely surgical entity, also requires psychoemotional assessment to prevent it recurrence and limit its severity.

RESUMO

Resumen: Introducción: Los tricobezoares son acúmulos intraluminales de cabello ingerido. El síndrome de Rapunzel hace referencia a la presencia de los tricobezoares gástricos que se extienden al intestino delgado, sumados a la tricotilomanía y tricofagia, los cuales ocurren preferentemente en pacientes psiquiátricos en edad pediátrica. Objetivo: Analizar la aparición y manejo de este síndrome, propor cionando de igual manera datos acerca del entorno familiar y psicoemocional para que, por medio del análisis de los mismos, en un futuro se pueda identificar el riesgo en pacientes con circunstancias similares. Caso clínico: Paciente femenina de 14 años con antecedentes de tricotilomanía y tricofagia de dos años de evolución, que consultó por cuadro de dolor epigástrico asociado a sensación de plenitud posprandial, náuseas y pérdida de peso. Al examen destacaban áreas alopécicas en el cuero cabelludo y a la palpación abdominal se identificó un plastrón cuyo contorno parecía corresponder a los límites gástricos. En los estudios de imágenes se encontró una ocupación gástrica por bezoar. Con la laparotomía más gastrostomía se identificaron dos tricobezoares simultáneos en estómago y duodeno, que fueron resueltos quirúrgicamente y la paciente fue manejada con abordaje psicoemocional. Conclusión: El síndrome de Rapunzel, lejos de ser meramente una entidad quirúrgica, requiere un apoyo psicoemocional para prevenir su recurrencia y limitar su severidad.
