    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Case Reports

    Background:

    • Biliary ileus is a rare complication of cholecystoduodenal fistula.
    • Cholelithiasis can lead to the formation of such fistulas.

    Observation:

    • A case of biliary ileus secondary to a successfully operated cholecystoduodenal fistula is presented.
    • The patient's history included cholelithiasis.

    Findings:

    • Preoperative diagnosis is vital for patient prognosis in biliary ileus.
    • Echotomography demonstrated significant diagnostic value in identifying the condition, especially with a history of gallstones.

    Implications:

    • Emphasizes the importance of considering biliary ileus in patients with gallstone history and obstructive symptoms.
  • Highlights echotomography as a key diagnostic tool for preoperative assessment in these complex cases.
