[Iatrogenic gallstone ileus as a new complication of Bouveret's syndrome].

M Iuchtman1, A Sternberg, R Alfici, E Sternberg, T Fireman.   

Abstract

Bouveret's syndrome involves gastric outlet obstruction caused by a gallstone in the duodenum. This type of gallstone ileus can be diagnosed and treated endoscopically. Endoscopic stone removal is especially indicated in poor risk patients. A dislodged impacted stone can migrate distally and cause small bowel mechanical obstruction. We report a 51-year-old woman who underwent endoscopic duodenal stone manipulation which resulted in small bowel obstruction.
