“…1 Lassandro et al compared the clinical value of plain abdominal film, ultrasound abdomen and CT abdomen in diagnosing 27 cases of gall stone ileus, and found that the Rigler's triad (Mechanical small bowel obstruction, ectopic gall stone and pneumobilia on abdominal X ray film presents 14.81% in plain abdominal film,11.11% in abdominal ultrasound and 77.78% in CT Abdomen, respectively. 7 So the CT offers a crucial evidence for the diagnosis and management of Gall stone ileus.…”

“…However, gallstone ileus is easily missed on plain radiographs, because most gallstones are radiolucent and all 3 elements of the Rigler triad show up in only 15% of cases. 2 Although formal guidelines are lacking, expert opinion supports the early use of abdominal CT scanning when gallstone ileus is suspected, with the Rigler triad seen in up to 80% of cases when CT is used. 2,3 The decision to intervene surgically depends on the patient's clinical condition.…”

Enterolithotomy alone (without cholecystectomy and fistula repair) is the preferred option in frail, older patients.…”
