Abstract:
Adhesions, tumours and hernias are frequent reasons for an ileus of the small intestine in adults. We describe the rare case of an ileus of small intestine caused by a big enterolith which was formed in a duodenal diverticulum. As a predisposing condition we identified a bone of a chicken.
