Bouveret's syndrome is a rare cause of gastric outlet obstruction. The stones enter the small bowel via cholecysto-enteric fistula. The most common presenting symptoms are abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. The gold standard diagnostic test isesophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). Rigler's triad on abdominal x-ray is classic. CT scan findings are pneumobilia, cholecystoduodenal fistula and a gallstone in the duodenum. We present a case of a 75-year-old female who presents with 3 week history of nausea, vomiting, and diffuse abdominal pain. Initial presentation, imaging and EGD was concerning for malignancy. She was later diagnosed to have Bouveret's syndrome and underwent laparoscopic small bowel enterotomy with removal of gallstones.
布韦雷特综合征是胃出口梗阻的一种罕见病因。结石通过胆囊肠瘘进入小肠。最常见的症状是腹痛、恶心和呕吐。金标准诊断检查是食管胃十二指肠镜检查(EGD)。腹部X线平片上的里格勒三联征具有典型性。CT扫描结果为气腹、胆囊十二指肠瘘和十二指肠内的胆结石。我们报告一例75岁女性患者,有3周恶心、呕吐和弥漫性腹痛病史。初始表现、影像学检查和EGD提示为恶性肿瘤。她后来被诊断为布韦雷特综合征,并接受了腹腔镜小肠切开取石术。
