This study reports a rare case of a midline gallbladder in an anterior suprahepatic position, occurring alongside liver inversion. This unique combination of congenital anomalies has not been previously documented in medical literature.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Congenital Anomalies
  • Anatomical Variations

Background:

  • Liver inversion and gallbladder malposition are individually rare congenital conditions.
  • Understanding these anomalies is crucial for surgical planning and diagnosis.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with a unique combination of hepatic inversion and an anterior suprahepatic midline gallbladder.
  • This specific anatomical configuration represents a novel finding.

Findings:

  • The co-occurrence of liver inversion and an anterior suprahepatic midline gallbladder is described.
  • This case highlights a previously unreported association of rare biliary and hepatic anomalies.

Implications:

  • This case expands the spectrum of known congenital hepatobiliary anomalies.

  • Awareness of such rare associations is important for radiologists and surgeons to avoid diagnostic errors and ensure patient safety.
