What is Barium Meal Insights for Duodenal Ulcers about?

The barium meal shows uniform oval filling defect surrounded by shell of barium. The diagnosis is gastric bezoars. Bezoars typically occur in children or neurotic female patients after accidental ingestion of hair, vegetables or other indigestible material. Endoscopy can confirm the diagnosis and rule out malignancy. Treatment options include endoscopic removal, gastrostomy or passing the bezoar with a "jam sandwich" of cotton.
