Bouveret syndrome, an extremely rare cause of gastric outlet obstruction, is characterized by the impaction of a gallstone, which has either passed into the duodenum or pyloric channel via a cholecystoduodenal or cholecystogastric fistula. In this case report, a 63-year-old female sought emergency care due to diffuse abdominal pain. The patient cursed with severe abdominal pain, oral intolerance, and signs of peritoneal irritation. Evaluations, including X-rays, CT scans, and lab tests, revealed an intestinal obstruction caused by a 6.5 cm stone, necessitating exploratory laparotomy. An enterotomy led to favorable clinical progress. In conclusion, this case underscores the significance of prompt diagnosis and intervention in managing this challenging yet rare biliary condition.
