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.

Introduction: A gallbladder mucocele is the distention of the gallbladder by an inappropriate accumulation of mucus. Decreased bile flow, decreased gallbladder motility, and altered absorption of water from the gallbladder lumen are predisposing factors to biliary sludge. However, it is more likely to be a small part of a complex disease process involving inflammation of the gallbladder wall and changes to the lining of the gallbladder changing the consistency of its secretions.

Department of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles, Santa Monica, CA, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Motesanib, a medication used for advanced cancers, has been linked to gallbladder toxicity, prompting a study on its effects on gallbladder size and function.
- In a trial involving 49 patients, treatment with motesanib led to an average increase in gallbladder volume and a decrease in function, with some patients experiencing gallbladder-related issues.
- Findings indicated that while motesanib caused some gallbladder complications, these effects appeared reversible after stopping the medication.
