Biliary pancreatitis in a duplicate gallbladder: a case report and review of literature.

Duplicated gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly that require special attentions due to its clinical, surgical and diagnostic difficulties. We present a case of a 39-year-old female patient with a duplicated gallbladder who presented with an acute biliary pancreatitis, a case to our knowledge is the first in the literature. A double gallbladder in an abdominal ultrasonography was doubtful, thus a computed tomography scan, a magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography were done that confirmed the double gallbladder.

Proposal of a new preliminary scoring tool for early identification of significant blunt bowel and mesenteric injuries in patients at risk after road traffic crashes.

Purpose: Blunt bowel and mesenteric injuries (BBMI) are regularly missed by abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans. The aim of this study was to develop a risk assessment tool for BBMI to help clinicians in decision-making for blunt trauma after road traffic crashes (RTCs).

Methods: Single-center retrospective study of trauma patients from January 2010 to April 2015.
