An elderly male presented to our emergency room with acute abdomen. Clinical and imaging evaluations suggested small bowel obstruction due to primary jejunal enterolith with associated stricture. We performed surgical exploration when initial nonoperative therapeutic management failed to resolve the symptoms. Primary jejunal enterolith obstruction is a rare disease presentation reported in literature.
