We report a case of an incomplete bladder duplication diagnosed by prenatal ultrasonography at 35 weeks of gestation. The patient was followed until bladder neck obstruction and high-grade vesicoureteral reflux of a solitary kidney prompted definitive repair at 6 months of age. Bladder duplication is a rare anomaly. To our knowledge this is the first documented case of an incomplete bladder duplication discovered antenatally.

Background: Overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome has a significant impact on quality of life, and vibegron has emerged as a therapeutic option. This study aims to evaluate the safety profile of vibegron in a disproportionality analysis by analyzing adverse event (AE) reports from the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the FAERS database from January 2021 to September 2023.

Anatomical variations of the biliary tree are common and frequently encountered during imaging; however, anatomical variations of the gall bladder are rare. Information about such rare variant anatomy must be communicated to the surgeon beforehand due to the risk of common bile duct (CBD) and hepatic artery injury during surgery. Duplication of the gall bladder is a rare malformation and may be asymptomatic or symptomatic, with symptoms being difficult to differentiate from single gall bladder pathology.
