Abstract
We report a case of gall stone ileus in which the calculus was initially impacted in the small gut
causing small gut obstruction. On follow up, CT demonstrated the calculus in the rectum confirming
its spontaneous passage. The spontaneous passage of obstructing gall stone is an extremely rare
entity.
