story by Sumesh Rajan

Krishna Somalya Sambar,
a tribal hailing from Thoratpada, a hamlet in Talasari taluka of Palghar
district, close to Mumbai in Maharashtra state, had frequent bouts of abdominal
pain and vomiting.
“He was referred to me
for frequent abdominal pain and vomiting. After doing an x-ray, we found that
some metal foreign bodies were lodged in his abdomen. We were not sure of its
location, and did a gastroscopy. Then we came to know that the entire foreign
body was stuck at the pylorus, the distant most part of the stomach,” said Dr.
Amit Sharad Kele of Krishna Hospital, Canada Corner, Nashik.

“He is suffering from bezoar
- a gastrointestinal disorder due to pica which is also called as
metallophagia, a compulsive disorder of eating non-nutritional substances, for
the past 20 years. This made him a habitual eater of iron and metal coins. Some
got flushed out of his system in the natural course of excretion but others remained
stuck in his abdomen, causing pain and vomiting,” said Dr. Kele.
He added that Sambar's condition was improving and would be discharged soon.
