Laparoscopic Management of Double Gallbladder

Abstract

Double gall bladder is a rare congenital anomaly and is challenging to the surgeons due to increased risk of postoperative complications. We present a case of double gall bladder that was successfully managed laparoscopically. Preoperative ultrasonography showed one vesicle of the gall bladder had thick wall with multiple calculi while the other had normal thickness without calculus. Both the gallbladders were connected to the common bile duct with a single cystic duct. Â Keywords: cholelithiasis; cholecystectomy; double gallbladder; laparoscopy.
