Abstract
Enterolith in the Roux limb of hepaticojejunostomy causing jaundice is a rare occurrence. A 40-year-old woman had an extrahepatic biliary obstruction and cholangitis 13 years after the Roux-en-Y repair of postcholecystectomy benign biliary stricture. On evaluation, an enterolith was obstructing the Roux limb, which was successfully managed surgically.
