What Are Foreign Bodies and Bezoars?

  • Foreign bodies are objects accidentally swallowed or inserted into the nose, ears, airway, or digestive tract. Common items include coins, batteries, buttons, pins, or toy parts.

  • Bezoars are masses formed from undigested material in the stomach or intestines. They may include:

    • Trichobezoar (hair)

    • Phytobezoar (plant fibers)

    • Lactobezoar (milk protein, common in infants)
