Although mutation of TRPS1 gene is considered to be responsible for the syndromes in 2000, investigation of bone metabolism and changes of serum insulin-like growth factor （IGF）-1 level in this kind of patients is rare. Here, we report a patient with TRPS I （MIM 190350） presenting a novel mutation （1096insA） and abnormal changes of severe osteoporosis as well as low serum IGF-I level.展开更多

A trichobezoar is a bezoar made up of hair and is a rare cause of bowel obstruction of the proximal gastrointes-tinal tract. They are seen mostly in young women with trichotillomania and trichotillophagia and symptoms include epigastric pain, nausea, loss of appetite and bowel or gastric outlet obstruction. We herein describe a case of a trichobezoar that presented as a gastric outlet obstruction and was subsequently successfully removed via a laparotomy.展开更多
