The rare Bouveret's Syndrome, which refers to the proximal impaction of gallstone(s) in the duodenum or pylorus resulting in the gastric outlet obstruction (GOO), has also been described in the literature. However, gallbladder mucocele with extrinsic compression of the duodenum and\/or pylorus causing GOO is a separate entity that is extremely rare.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Presentation of case:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A patient who presented with loss of appetite and weight, with intermittent vomiting over a course of eight months was found to have GOO secondary to extrinsic duodenal compression from a large gallbladder mucocele. Surgical intervention in the form of cholecystectomy was performed, and the patient's symptoms resolved post-operatively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We describe an extremely rare case of GOO, which can be easily corrected with cholecystectomy.
