    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Biliary ileus is a rare complication of gallstone disease.
    • Gallstone-induced bowel obstruction necessitates timely diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • Four cases of biliary ileus with successful surgical outcomes are presented.
    • Literature review highlights the pathogenesis and treatment of biliary ileus.

    Findings:

    • Surgical intervention is the definitive treatment for biliary ileus.
    • Emergency surgery should focus on calculus removal, ileus exploration, and potential fistula closure.

    Implications:

    • Early surgical management of biliary ileus improves patient prognosis.
    • Addressing the underlying biliary-digestive fistula is crucial for preventing recurrence.
