ABSTRACT
Mirizzi's syndrome is a rare and chronic inflammation caused by a gallstone
impacted in the Hartmann's pouch with partial or complete obstruction of the main
bile duct, which results in difficult preoperative diagnosis and controversial
therapeutic management. To present the treatment of five patients diagnosed with Mirizzi's syndrome type V. A search for articles was carried out in the databases
Pubmed, Dynamed and Conchrane. The treatment of this entity was presented in
five patients, taking into account the author´s experience of the review´s findings.
Conventional surgery is the ideal access route for this entity´s treatment using
bilioenteric bypass in its variants. A high index of suspicion is required for accurate
preoperative and intraoperative diagnosis, with optimal surgical planning.
