Abstract

Enterolithiasis, or presence of stone concretions in the gastrointestinal tract, is an important but relatively uncommon clinical condition that has recently gained significant attention with advances in the gastrointestinal field. Here, we present a case of an old male having features of bowel Ischemia and gangrene formation. Patient underwent exploratory laparotomy and there was a presence of inflamed Gut with a perforation just one and half feet away from IC junction and an obstruction was also identified by following the dilated bowel loops distally, palpation revealed a hard stone and enterotomy incision at the site delivered a stone. Following it, resection of thickened mesentery was done and loop ileostomy was made. The most important prognostic factor in such cases relies on time interval between onset of symptoms and definitive treatment. By improving the awareness and early recognition of mesenteric ischemia will lead to improved survival in the condition.
