Gall bladder duplication: A rare biliary malformation.
Radiol Case Rep
March 2025
Department of Radiology, National Academy of Medical Sciences (NAMS), Bir Hospital, Mahabouddha, Kathmandu, 44600, Nepal.
Gallbladder duplication is a rare anatomical variation with an incidence of approximately 1 in 3800 to 4000 live births, resulting from aberrant biliary organogenesis. This case report discusses a 35-year-old female who presented with intermittent lower abdominal pain, with initial imaging revealing a complex left adnexal cyst. Follow-up CT and ultrasound examinations revealed 2 distinct gallbladder-like structures in the gallbladder fossa, each with a cystic duct draining into the common bile duct.

The biliary system exhibits significant anatomical variations, which pose challenges for most surgeons during cholecystectomy. Among these variations, a true left-sided gallbladder (LSG) is an uncommon finding. In such cases, the gallbladder is located to the left of the round ligament.

Objective: To describe postnatal outcome following the prenatal diagnosis of an abnormal fetal gallbladder.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review of studies from January 1980 to January 2023 that described FGB abnormalities, which included agenesis or non-visualisation, abnormal content presence of sludge, abnormal shape or size and abnormal position, and postnatal outcome to determine the association with pathology.
Results: In 51 studies, 842 fetuses had abnormal FGB.
Purpose: To determine the efficacy and safety of virtual unenhanced imaging by comparing the attenuation values of virtual and true unenhanced images acquired using third-generation dual-source dual-energy computed tomography (dsDECT).
Methods: Single-energy non-contrast and dual-energy arterial and venous phase images of 97 patients who underwent triphasic abdominal computed tomography (CT) were included in this retrospective study. Virtual unenhanced images were generated for the arterial (a) and venous (v) phases using two dsDECT algorithms.

Article Synopsis
- * Ultrasonography is the primary diagnostic tool, and treatment options vary based on tumor size, growth rate, patient symptoms, and other risk factors.
- * For adenomas ≥ 1 cm, immediate laparoscopic cholecystectomy is recommended, while smaller adenomas may only require monitoring unless growth or risk factors are present.
