Abstract

Bouveret syndrome (BS) is an extremely rare disease. We report the case of a 54-year-old man who presented to our department with acute vomiting. An upper digestive endoscopy was first done, revealing an enclaved gallstone in the second duodenum. The correct diagnosis was then made using cross-sectional imaging.
