Abstract

Gallstone ileus is a relatively rare pathology, most commonly obstructing the terminal ileum. Bouveret syndrome, leading to gastric outlet obstruction and seen with an incidence of less than 1%, is a syndrome met particularly in elderly patients and develops as the result of cholecysto-enteric fistula. In this report, it was aimed to present a 95-year-old case diagnosed with Bouveret syndrome.

Özet

Safra taşı ileusu oldukça nadir görülen bir olgu olup en sık terminal ileumu obstrükte etmektedir. Mide çıkış obstrüksiyonuna neden olan ve %1’den az görülen Bouveret sendromu ise özellikle yaşlılarda gözlenen bir sendrom olup kolesistoenterik fistül sonucu gelişen bir tablodur. Bu olgumuzda 95 yaşında Bouveret sendromu tanısı alan bir vakayı sunacağız.
