  • Title: Colonoscopic removal of a gallstone obstructing the sigmoid colon.
    Author: Roberts SR, Chang C, Chapman T, Koontz PG, Early GL.
    Journal: J Tenn Med Assoc; 1990 Jan; 83(1):18-9. PubMed ID: 2294333.
    Abstract:
    For the patient with a single gallstone obstructing the colon, this technique offers nonoperative relief of the obstruction, allowing definitive operative therapy to be accomplished at a later time on a more elective basis. The patient should be carefully observed during the interval for intervening recurrent gallstone ileus.
