ABSTRACT
Bouveret Syndrome (BS) is a rare type of gallstone ileus, where a gallstone passes via a cholecystoduodenal fistula and causes gastric outlet obstruction. It comprises 0.3-0.5% of cholelithiasis complications. It primarily affects females with an average incidence age of 74 years. Gastric Neuroendocrine Tumors (G-NETs) make up merely 2% of all forms of gastric neoplasia and are known to be an extremely rare occurrence. Their annual incidence is estimated to be one to two per 1 million individuals, and they comprise 8.7% of all known neuroendocrine neoplasia of the gastrointestinal system. Case presentation: We present the case of a 44-year-old Middle Eastern female who presented to the clinic due to multiple episodes of food containing biliary nonprojectile emesis accompanied by epigastric pain. Preoperative radiological workup revealed a Bezoar blocking the gastric outlet and a G-NET in the mucosal layer of the stomach. Clinical discussion: Surgical intervention consisted of excising the impacted calculus to relieve the existing gastric outlet obstruction simultaneous to performing an uncut Roux-en-Y to treat the G-NET condition. The patient underwent complete recovery. Conclusion: BS is an extremely rare form of gallstone ileus and gastric outlet obstruction. Its clinical presentation is nonspecific and results in misdiagnosis. Additionally, it is rare to occur in our patient's age group. NETs are also profoundly rare forms of neoplasia. To the best of our knowledge, no previous cases of simultaneous BS and G-NET have been documented. Therefore, clinical awareness should be raised to timely implement the necessary therapeutic interventions.
