ABSTRACT
Gastric bezoar has been known to occur occasionally in the gastrointestinal tract, as a result of foreign material accumulating in the stomach. Most case have been managed by surgical methods. Currently, the endoscopic mathod is after used for the gastrointestinal disease, and therefore we treated two cases of huge bezoars using the endoscopic polypectomy snare and lithotriptor. Subsequently, we are reporting these cases and have incorporated relevant literature which was reviewed for our report for the subject case.
