Abstract
Poster Exhibition only
Gallstone ileus is a rare condition. It accounts for approximately 1% of small bowel obstruction and is more prevalent in the elderly population. It is usually present in relatively comorbid patients posing further operative challenges. The following report investigates the management of two large gallstones resulting in two different points of obstruction. Is double trouble doubly hard to manage?
Case report
Method of resecting 2 stones in 2 areas of the small bowel will be presented
While this presentation was unusual, we can suffice to say the patient made a remarkable recovery given his presentation and having had two GAs within close proximity.
