Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatobiliary Surgery

Background:

  • Cholelithiasis (gallstones) is a common condition requiring surgical intervention.
  • Congenital anomalies of the gallbladder, though rare, can present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Observation:

  • A 59-year-old woman with symptomatic cholelithiasis underwent abdominal surgery.
  • An incidental finding during surgery revealed a double gallbladder, a rare congenital biliary tract anomaly.

Findings:

  • The case highlights the importance of recognizing rare anatomical variations during surgical procedures.
  • A review of existing literature on double gallbladders, focusing on incidence, anatomical variations, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic strategies, is presented.

Implications:

  • Accurate preoperative diagnosis and understanding of gallbladder anomalies are crucial for successful surgical outcomes.
