RESUMO

We are presenting an case of a patient with upper gastrointestinal bleeding presented as hematemesis preceded by profuse vomiting secondary to a duodenal obstruction, caused by an impacted giant biliary stone in the duodenal bulb (Bouveret syndrome). The diagnosis was made during an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and confirmed by surgery. We report and discuss this case as it is the first presentation in our institution.
