Pseudo-Bouveret's Syndrome
Abstract
We report a patient with gastric outlet obstruction due to gallstone, with clinical and imaging features mimicking Bouveret's syndrome. However, the obstruction was simply due to extrinsic compression by a gallstone without cholecystoduodenal fistula formation. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy cured the patient.
