PETRACCHI, Enrique; CANULLAN, Carlos; POSADA, Héctor  and  VARELA, José R.. Cholecystoduodenal Fistula without Gallstones Migration. Case Report. Cir. Urug. [online]. 2023, vol.7, n.1, e302.  Epub Jan 01, 2023. ISSN 1688-1281.  https://doi.org/10.31837/cir.urug/7.1.6.

Bouveret's syndrome is a rare cause of biliary ileus, with a high morbimortality. It is caused by the migration of a stone, usually large, into the gastrointestinal tract through a cholecystoduodenal fistula. The objective of this scientific letter is to present a patient with a previous stage of the disease where the fistula is constituted, but without migration of the calculus, so that the timely diagnosis would have a favorable impact on the treatment and prognosis because the obstructive intestinal condition is not established.

Keywords : Biliary ileus; Intestinal obstruction; Gallblader stones; Bouverets syndrome.
