Özet

Gallstones are rare causes of intestinal obstruction. Mechanical obstruction occurs by impaction of large gallstones in the gastrointestinal tract following entry via a bilio-enteric or choledocho-enteric fistula, thought to occur as a result of recurrent cholecystitis. The duty of surgeons in the treatment of these patients is to resolve the patient's complaint and eliminate the underlying pathology. A 54 year old male patient admitted for intermittent obstruction was successfully treated by single stage surgery for incidental Meckel diverticulum and gallstone ileus.
