Résumé

Bouveret's syndrome is an uncommon cause of gastric outlet obstruction caused by the impaction of large gallstones in the duodenal lumen. The gallstones pass into the duodenal lumen through a cholecystogastric or a cholecystoduodenal fistula. Endoscopic retrieval with or without lithotripsy is the first line of management, often with variable success. We present a case of a woman in her 70s who presented with signs of gastric outlet obstruction and was diagnosed with Bouveret's syndrome with a 5 cm diameter gallstone in the third part of her duodenum. Following several unsuccessful attempts of endoscopic extraction, she underwent successful jejunal enterotomy with fragmentation and extraction of the calculus using an Allis tissue holding forceps. Postoperative recovery was uneventful.
