Abstract

A 90-year-old woman was admitted with chest pain and vomiting. She had developed a gastric outlet obstruction (Bouveret's syndrome). On computed tomography and gastrointestinal endoscopy, a gallstone was found to be impacted in the duodenal bulb. The patient was successfully treated by a single session of electrohydraulic lithotripsy used with water-jet endoscopy. Since water-jet endoscopy provides a clear view during electrohydraulic lithotripsy of a gallstone impacted in the gastrointestinal tract, so it facilitates the procedure.
