Gallstone ileus is a rare complication of biliary lithiasis that occurs by the formation of some fistula (or fistulas) between the vesicular wall and the gastrointestinal tract, which could lead to intestinal obstruction. The treatment should be individualized according to the characteristics of the patient. Although there are other therapeutic options, surgery is the most appropriate treatment in most of the cases. We present the case of an impacted gallstone ileus in the sigmoid colon of 85-year-old patient with multiple comorbidities. The patient was operated urgently through an infra-umbilical laparotomy performing enterotomy on tapeworm, extraction of the calculus and exteriorization of colostomy in shotgun barrel. The final result was death. A review of the literature is carried out on the case.
