MEWA KINOO, S; NAIDOO, R; MAHARAJ, K e SINGH, B. Gallbladder duplication masquerading as a dilated common bile duct with choledocholithiasis. S. Afr. j. surg. [online]. 2016, vol.54, n.2, pp.48-50. ISSN 2078-5151.
A duplicate gall bladder was diagnosed at laparoscopy, having been erroneously diagnosed on ultrasonography as a dilated common bile duct with choledocholithiasis. Gallbladder duplication is a congenital abnormality with a rare incidence, occuring in approximately 1 in 4 000 births and 0.020% in al large autopsy series. This report highlights its existence to improve awareness and lessen the potential for biliary injury.
