Article Synopsis
- Gallbladder volvulus (GV) is a rare but serious medical condition in children, especially in boys, leading to acute abdominal pain that requires quick surgical intervention to prevent life-threatening complications.
- A 5-year-old girl presented with severe abdominal pain and vomiting, initially diagnosed with gallbladder inflammation, but upon further imaging tests, she was accurately diagnosed with GV, which showed classic signs like a "floating gallbladder."
- The patient underwent a successful laparoscopic cholecystectomy after the correct diagnosis, allowing for a good postoperative recovery, highlighting the importance of timely imaging in avoiding severe outcomes like gallbladder perforation.
