| Summary: | Gallbladder duplication is a rare anomaly and bilobed gall
bladder is an extremely rare entity. Duplicate gallbladder is
an congenital defect, results from abnormal embryogenesis
during the fifth and sixth weeks of gestation. Diagnosis
of such a patient may be difficult pre-operatively.
Identification of such anomalies can avoid biliary injuries
and other complications during laparoscopic procedures
being done on the gall bladder. We present a case of
bilobed gall bladder that was diagnosed and managed
intra-operatively. |
