Left-sided Gallbladder in the Era of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Single-center Experience.

The malposition of gallbladder under the liver segment III, defined as left-sided gallbladder (LSG), is an unexpected situation for the laparoscopic surgeon. The purpose of this study is to present our experience in treating patients with cholecystitis and LSG discovered incidentally during laparoscopic surgical procedure. Between 1993 and 2009, 5569 patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our surgical department.
