Abstract
Bouveret syndrome is is a pyloroduodenal obstruction by a gallstone migrated through a cholecystoduodenal fistula. It’s a rare complication of cholelithiasis .Given the relative rarity of this condition, we review the diagnosis and management including a report of one case with an acute pancreatitis. The abdominal computed tomographic disclosed a huge gastric stasis upstream from a very tight postbulbar stenosis. The surgical approach consists on open dudenotomy and simultaneous cholecystectomy and fistula repair.
