Abstract
Gallstones are seen in 10% of the adult population. Ileus due to gallstones is a rare complication of cholelithiasis, representing 1-4% of mechanical intestinal obstruction cases. It often occurs as a result of larger than 2.5 cm stones passing through the gastrointestinal system due to bilioenteric fistula, causing obstruction in an already narrow space in the lumen. We present a patient with known prior history of a 4-cm gallstone who developed ileus associated with the gallstone in the sigmoid colon.

Abstract
Safra taşları yetişkin nüfusun %10’unda görülür. Safra taşına bağlı ileus kolelitiazisin nadir bir komplikasyonu olup, mekanik intestinal obstrüksiyon olgularının %1-4’ünü oluştur. Sıklıkla 2,5 cm üzerindeki taşların bilioenterik fistüle bağlı gastrointestinal sisteme geçmesi ve lümende dar olan bir alanda tıkanıklığa sebep olması ile meydana gelmektedir. Burada daha önceden bilinen 4 cm’lik safra kesesi taşı öyküsü olan bir olguda sigmoid kolonda safra taşına bağlı ileus gelişmesi nedeniyle sunuyoruz.
