Gallbladder Duplication in Two Cases

Abstract

Gallbladder duplication is very rare congenital malformation that is usually asymptomatic, but which may present with various complications. We present here two cases gallbladder duplication who presented with cholestatic hepatitis-acute abdomen in early childhood and treated with surgery, and the second one was asymptomatic during the follow-up who were detected in intrauterine period. The treatment of gallbladder duplication must be carefully managed. Unnecessary surgery should be avoided in asymptomatic cases, while in symptomatic patients requiring surgery it is important to clearly reveal the biliary system and vascular anatomy and to remove both gallbladders.
