Bouveret Syndrome

Bouveret syndrome is a form of gallstone ileus and a rare complication of chole(cysto)lithiasis. It describes gastric outlet obstruction secondary to an impacted gallstone. Here, we report a case of an 82-year-old female patient with gastric outlet obstruction and penetration of gallstones into the duodenal bulb on endoscopic imaging. Based on these findings Bouveret syndrome was diagnosed and confirmed by computed tomography.

Bouveret Syndrome

Bouveret syndrome is a rare cause of gastric outlet obstruction. It is characterised by the presence of an obstructing gallstone in the pylorus or proximal duodenum, which has travelled to its obstructing position via an acquired fistula. Our case involves a 73-year-old man presenting to the acute surgical take with a 2-day history of right-sided abdominal pain and vomiting. His medical history included perforated cholecystitis treated with antibiotics and percutaneous gall bladder drainage, 1 year earlier. Examination and blood tests were suggestive of gastric outlet obstruction. CT abdomen and pelvis demonstrated a large gallstone obstructing the duodenum, confirming a diagnosis of Bouveret syndrome. The patient improved following gastrolithotomy, and was discharged 2 weeks postoperatively. Fistula formation is a complication of chronic cholecystitis and therefore Bouveret syndrome should be considered in patients with a background of gallstone disease presenting with gastric outlet obstruction.

Bouveret Syndrome

Bouveret syndrome is a rare variant of gallstone ileus causing gastric outlet obstruction. It results from the formation of either a cholecystoduodenal or a cholecystogastric fistula and subsequent migration of gallstone into the duodenum or pylorus of stomach, causing obstruction. The first case was reported by Leon Bouveret in 1896. We report a case illustrating the rarity and severity of this condition, together with a review of the literature of the different methods of endoscopic and surgical treatment.

Bouveret Syndrome

Bouveret syndrome is a rare cause of gastric outlet obstruction by passage of gallstone through a fistula between the gallbladder and proximal gastrointestinal tract, it is considered a proximal form of gallstone ileus. The clinical presentation is nonspecific, and imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis of this entity.

Összefoglaló. A Bouveret-szindróma egy bilioenteralis fistulán keresztül a vékonybélbe – az esetek 85%-ában a duodenumba – jutó nagy epekő okozta bélelzáródást jelenti. Leggyakrabban idős nők körében fordul elő. Jelen közleményünk célja e kórkép tüneteinek, diagnosztikájának és terápiás lehetőségeinek ismertetése egy esetbemutatás kapcsán. A 79 éves nőbeteg felvételi hasi panaszainak hátterében típusos gyomorkimenet-obstrukciós szindrómát okozó, a duodenumban beékelődött epekő, Bouveret-szindróma igazolódott. A diagnózist az elvégzett natív hasi röntgen és hasi ultrahangvizsgálatok már felvetették, de megerősítésére további képalkotó vizsgálatot (hasi CT) és endoszkópos beavatkozást végeztünk. Ezt követően sebészeti beavatkozás történt, melynek során a cholecystoduodenalis fistula zárása és az epekő eltávolítása után a beteg gyógyultan távozott. Közleményünkben a diagnózisfelállítás idejének fontosságáról, illetve a terápiás lehetőségekről számolunk be, valamint szeretnénk felhívni a figyelmet az epekő okozta gyomorürülési zavar ezen ritka formájára. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(49): 1982–1986. Summary. Bouveret syndrome is a rare form of bowel obstruction resulting to the small intestine – in 85% of the cases to the duodenum – caused by a gallstone from a bilioenteral fistula. It occurs most commonly in elderly women. The aim of the present study is to describe the symptoms, diagnostic and therapeutic options of Bouveret syndrome due to our case report. The background of epigastric pain of the 79-year-old woman was the typical gastric outlet obstruction syndrome caused by Bouveret syndrome with an impacted gallstone into the duodenum. This diagnosis was suggested by abdominal X-ray and abdominal ultrasound; however, it was confirmed with abdominal computer tomography and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. This was followed by surgical intervention to close the cholecystoduodenal fistula and remove the gallstone, finally the cured patient was discharged. In our study, we summarize the importance of timely diagnosis and therapeutic options, respectively, furthermore, draw attention to this rare form of gallstone-caused gastric outlet obstruction syndrome.
