Mirizzi syndrome is an unusual complication of gallstone disease and occurs in approximately 1% of these patients. Some cases can not be identified preoperatively, despite modern imaging techniques. Today, treatment of Mirizzi syndrome is surgical. If Mirizzi syndrome is present, the risk of bile duct injury increases, particularly during laparoscopic surgery. Therefore, preoperative or intraoperative diagnosis is important. Here, we presented a 29 year-old woman with obstructive jaundice who diagnosed as cholelithiasis and choledocholithiasis. Preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography relieved the common bile duct stone but cound not diagnosed the Mirizzi syndrome preoperatively. During laparoscopy, the diagnosis of Mirizzi syndrome was suspected early and the procedure was converted to open cholecystectomy and T-tube to common bile duct. There was no bile duct injury and postoperative course was uneventful.
