Resumen

JIMENEZ PRENDES, Reinaldo  y  LóPEZ ECHEMENDIA, Rasiel. Gallstone Ileus: a Surgical Emergency Presentation. Medisur [online]. 2011, vol.9, n.6, pp.589-591. ISSN 1727-897X.

The case of a 60 years old female patient with a history of gallstones that was admitted as an emergency because of abdominal pain, vomiting and abdominal distension of 2 days is presented. The patient presented also secondary moderate dehydration. In a simple abdominal radiography, radiological signs of intestinal occlusion were found. Electrolyte imbalance was corrected and an exploratory laparotomy was performed. Through this procedure, a large stone was found in the terminal ileum. Enterolithotomy was performed along with enterorraphy, thus solving the occlusion.

Palabras clave : intestinal pseudo-obstruction; digestive system surgical procedures.
