Bezoar
![Bezoar stones were seen as valuable commodities, sometimes with magical healing properties, as in the early modern English case Chandelor v Lopus[1]](/uploads/202412/24/Bezoare1156.jpg)
A bezoar /ˈbiːzɔər/ is a mass found trapped in the gastrointestinal system (Gastrolith, usually in the stomach), though it can occur in other locations. A pseudobezoar is an indigestible object introduced intentionally into the digestive system.
There are several varieties of bezoar, some of which have inorganic constituents and others organic. The term has both a modern (medical, scientific) and a traditional usage.
