Abstract

Impacted gallstones in the stomach and the duodenum lead to a rare presentation of gastric outlet obstruction known as Bouveret syndrome. Diagnosis and management is often challenging because of lack of streamlined protocol. However, when a diagnosis is made, there is an extensive toolkit available to endoscopists and surgeons to ensure favorable outcomes for the patient. In this article, we present a challenging case of Bouveret syndrome that required multidepartmental coordination and intervention.
