Bezoars are solid mass of a indigestible material accumulating in the gastrointestinal tract. Although rarely, bezoars may cause gastrointestinal obstruction. We aimed to present the case of a patient presenting with the complaint of vomiting in whom a diagnosis could not be established for a long period of time.
