Gallstone Ileus on CT Scans

-This CT demonstrates the classic Rigler’s Triad of gallstone ileus: Pneumobilia (air in the biliary tract), low small bowel obstruction with distended small bowel loops, and an impacted gallstone in the terminal ileum.
-Discussion
Gallstone ileus is the name given to the mechanical small bowel obstruction caused by a gallstone impacting in the terminal ileum. The gallstone passes through a cholecystoduodenal fistula, travels the length of the small bowel, and then obstructs just proximal to the ileocecal valve. It is an unusual complication of cholecystolithiasis and chronic cholecystitis.

Hello everyone! my name is Noah, I'm writing this article to appreciate the good work of DR AKHIGBE that helped me recently to bring back my wife that left me for another man for the past 6 months. After seeing a comment of a woman on the internet testifying of how she was helped by DR AKHIGBE I also decided to contact him for help because all i wanted was for me to get my wife, happiness and to make sure that my child grows up with his mother 'I love my wife' Am happy today that he helped me and i can proudly say that my wife is now with me again and she is now in love with me like never before.
