Trichobezoars are foreign and indigestible materials in the gastrointestinal tract and are usually found in psychiatric females, who often deny eating their own hair, but also at situations of gastric dysmotility and prior gastric surgery. Although rare, gastric trichobezoar should not be forgotten as a differential diagnosis in females presenting with vague epigastric pain. Its treatment well in time will prevent complications.

Primary aortoduodenal fistula (ADF) is a serious life-threatening condition.Unlike secondary ADF which occurs in patients who had previous aortic prosthetic reconstruction, primary ADF is uncommon. Its diagnosis is often unsuspected until surgery or postmortem. We report a rare case of primary ADF presenting as massive gastrointestinal bleeding.
