Abstract

Pica is a kind of nutritional disorder in which there is interest and great appetite to eat non - nutritional substances like chalk, ice, clay, paint, starch, aspirin and et cetra. There are nutritionan, physiologic, psychologic and cultural theories about this subject. However; main etiology of that problem is unknown. PICA SYNDROME is observed most commonly in children and pregnant women, espcially in the negroes with a low socioeconomic status. Pica is observed with iron deficiency and can be corrected after using of iron. Numerous complications of pica have been described, including abdo- minal symptoms (sometimes requires surgery), posioning by plumb, mercury and phosphorus and dentin caries and hyper or HYPOKALEMIA. This case is a 2.5 years old child who has been eating sands and soils from one year ago. The patient admitted in hospital due to abdominal pain and motion of the fine sands in the intestines and stomach was palpated. Terminally all sands passed from stomach and intestines. Hemoglobin was corrected and the patient was discharged after 2 days without requiring surgery.
