Abstract
To analyze informative value of radiological diagnosis of acute gallstone ileus. There were 7 patients with acute gallstone ileus who underwent diagnostic abdominal X-ray examination, ultrasonography and computed tomography. There was high informative value of CT for acute gallstone ileus if it was applied within the first hours after admission. At the same time other diagnostic approaches were less informative. CT within emergency diagnostic algorithm is able to optimize diagnostic process, to clarify the cause of acute ileus and to promptly determine the indications for video-assisted surgery.
