Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Surgical Management
  • Esophageal and Biliary Tract Pathologies

Background:

  • Biliary-enteric fistula can lead to duodenal obstruction, known as Bouveret's syndrome.
  • Boerhaave's syndrome involves distal esophageal rupture secondary to forceful emesis.

Observation:

  • This case presents the simultaneous occurrence of Bouveret's syndrome and Boerhaave's syndrome.
  • The patient experienced both duodenal obstruction from a biliary-enteric fistula and esophageal rupture.

Findings:

  • Successful surgical management of these two critical conditions occurring concurrently is reported for the first time.
  • Key aspects of presentation, diagnostic approaches, and surgical treatment strategies were highlighted.

Implications:
