Jejunal Limb Obstruction Caused by a Cholesterol Stone 15 Years After a Total Gastrectomy and 20 Years After a Cholecystectomy: Report of a Case

Tc scintigraphy. Surgery revealed a stone incarcerated in the jejunal limb, where the anastomosis had become slightly stenotic. The removed stone was 3.5 cm in diameter and was subsequently demonstrated to be a cholesterol stone by chemical analysis. This report is thought to be the first to describe jejunal limb obstruction caused by a gallstone incarcerated in the jejunal limb after a total gastrectomy in a patient with a history of cholecystectomy.
