Laparoscopic management of rare “ H type” duplication of gall bladder

Abstract

A duplicated gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly with an incidence of 1:4000 live births. Theycan remain asymptomatic and identified incidentally or present as acute cholecystitis, empyema,torsion, cholecystoenteric fistula, Gall bladder lump, or carcinoma. Here the current case is aboutdiscussing a case of a 25-year-old female who presented with symptomatic gallstone disease with aduplicated gallbladder having multiple stones in both the gallbladders. MRCP performedpreoperatively revealed Y type duplication (double Gall bladder with common cystic duct).Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed and it finally revealed H type duplication (double Gallbladder with separate cystic ducts for each Gall Bladder).
