Case Report: A 36-year-old man opium addict visited the emergency department with epigastric pain for three days. He swallowed nearly 90 packets of opium for smuggling purposes four days earlier. He self-administered laxatives. In contrast, many times vomiting, he defecated only four packets and vomited one packet. The abdominal X-rays showed some amounts of fluid-air levels and multiple cylindrical opacities with the double-condom sign, corresponding to the distended stomach. Due to the worsening of his abdominal symptoms, he underwent an urgent laparotomy and 84 packets (4-6 cm in size and 8-10 g\/ packet of opium) with a total weight of 870 g. They were wrapped in some layers of plastic and tied at the ends. He was discharged in stable condition. Conclusion: A large number of ingested drug packets can induce gastrointestinal obstruction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.34172\/ahj.2022.1336","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,19]],"date-time":"2023-02-19T18:55:10Z","timestamp":1676832910000},"page":"309-311","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Gastric Obstruction by Opium Packets: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.34172","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5200-4239","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Yeganeh","family":"Ramazani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Student Research Committee, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0741-1561","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ahmad","family":"Nemati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Student Research Committee, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0389-2270","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mohammad","family":"Moshiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Toxicology Research Center, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Toxicology and Poisoning, Imam Reza (p) Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7101-1773","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mohammad Reza","family":"Motie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surgical Oncology Research Center, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7072-9847","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Hamid","family":"Jomehpour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Drug Control Headquarters of the Islamic Republic of Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2800-9395","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Leila","family":"Etemad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pharmaceutical Research Center, Pharmaceutical Technology Institute, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"20123","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.22038\/apjmt.2017.8476"},{"key":"R2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.legalmed.2017.12.004"},{"key":"R3","first-page":"96","article-title":"Risk factors of mortality due to acute opium poisoning: a report from the largest intoxication referral center in Iran","volume":"9","author":"Rismantab-Sani S","year":"2017","journal-title":"Addict Health"},{"key":"R4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15406\/mojcr.2017.06.00173"},{"key":"R5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Pinto A, Reginelli A, Russo A, Fabozzi G, Giovine S, Romano L.
