Surgeons in Delhi extract 1.16-kg hair mass from patient's abdomen

This unusual medical issue is called trichophagia, which leads to the formation of a trichobezoar inside the digestive tract. Experts emphasize that individuals who compulsively eat hair should seek immediate physical and mental health assessments.
