[A body packer with cannabis].

Some body packers transport other drugs than cocaine or heroin, such as cannabis. In body packers who ingest cannabis, depressed consciousness is a main symptom of intoxication. They should be admitted and monitored for symptoms of intoxication or paralytic ileus. Laboratory tests provide qualitative support when interpreting clinical symptoms. Surgical intervention is indicated in cases of bowel obstruction or when intoxication due to package leakage is suspected.
