Core Tip This case highlights Bouveret syndrome-a rare cause of gastric outlet obstruction-occurring in an unusually young patient (age: 49 years). This condition was successfully managed with surgical intervention following endoscopic removal. It highlights the critical role of early imaging in prompt diagnosis and reinforces that surgery remains the definitive treatment for complex or refractory cases, providing insights into management strategies for atypical patient populations.
