Gallstone Ileus Surgery in Thane – Rare Intestinal Obstruction Caused by Gallstones
Advanced Emergency Gastrointestinal Surgery by Dr. Ankur Bhanushali
General, Laparoscopic & Emergency Surgeon in Thane
What Is Gallstone Ileus?
Gallstone ileus is a rare but serious cause of intestinal obstruction, where a large gallstone enters the intestine through an abnormal connection (biliary-enteric fistula) and gets stuck, blocking the bowel.
This condition is seen mostly in elderly patients and requires urgent surgical intervention. Delay can lead to bowel ischemia, perforation, and sepsis.
Dr. Ankur Bhanushali specializes in the emergency diagnosis and surgical treatment of gallstone ileus in Thane, ensuring timely and life-saving care.
