Abstract
Enterolithiasis is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction. It occurs with a low frequency and its etiology can be primary or secondary. They present nonspecifically clinically and their resolution is usually surgical. We present a case of a 45-year-old patient who presented two episodes, one year apart, of intestinal obstruction due to enteroliths of unknown cause. The recurrence of this pathology, for no apparent reason, is what makes this publication interesting. Universidad Nacional de CórdobaEntities:
