Enteroliths causing intermittent obstruction in a patient with Crohn's disease.

P Meade1, B McDonnell, D Fellows, K C Holtzmuller, L Runke.   

Abstract

Calcified enteroliths as a cause of intermittent small bowel obstruction is an uncommon clinical entity. The pathophysiological mechanism involves stasis of intestinal contents and has been associated with Meckel's diverticulum, tuberculosis, and regional enteritis. This case describes prophylactic operative intervention in a symptomatic patient with enteroliths as a result of Crohn's disease.
