University Surgical Unit, National Hospital of Sri Lanka, Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Introduction: Duplication of the gallbladder is a rare congenital malformation associated with the development of cholelithiasis. It increases the risk of iatrogenic bile duct injury during cholecystectomy and can lead to symptom recurrence if missed. Although preoperative imaging is helpful, detection rates are around 50 %.

Department of Pediatric Urology, Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milano, Italy. Electronic address:
Introduction: Bladder stones (BS) in children are a rare condition and represent 1-5 % of all urinary tract stones. With advances in miniaturized endoscopes and intracorporeal lithotripters, percutaneous cystolithotomy has been demonstrated to be an effective, safe and quick technique, despite the longer operative time. This limitation may be overcome by a semi-closed-circuit vacuum-assisted technology (vamPCL), characterized by a continuous inflow and a suction-controlled outflow (ClearPetra®).

Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
Rationale: When gland-preserving treatments are unsuccessful, sialoadenectomy is typically conducted for patients afflicted with submandibular gland diseases. The definitive treatment modality for these individuals is the removal of both the gland and the associated ducts. During surgery, the gland and the majority of the ducts can be excised utilizing the lateral transcervical approach, with residual ducts unlikely to develop pathology.
