Paraffin oil bezoar impacted in the small bowel: CT findings BRITISH JOURNAL OF RADIOLOGY Gayer, G., Gotlieb, W. H., Apter, S. 2000; 73 (875): 1213-1214

Abstract

A case of a paraffin oil bezoar impacted in the small bowel, resulting from the prolonged use of paraffin oil as treatment for increasing constipation in a patient with metastatic ovarian carcinoma, is described. Although pharmacobezoars are reported in the literature, we could not find a description of the CT findings of a paraffin oil bezoar.
