Background Cholecystocolonic fistula (CCF) is the second most common cholecystoenteric fistula and is often discovered intraoperatively, resulting in a challenging situation for the surgeon, who is forced to switch to a complex procedure, often in old, unfit patients. Management of this uncommon but possible finding is still ill defined. Methods An extensive review of 160 articles published from 1950 to 2006 concerning 231 cases of CCF was performed.Results CCF is mostly an affliction of women in their sixth to seventh decades and is rarely diagnosed preoperatively. Chronic diarrhea is the key symptom in nonemergency patients, but, in one-fourth of cases, CCF presents with an acute onset, mostly biliary ileus. In onefourth of patients, a second hepatobiliary abnormality is present, including gallbladder cancer in 2% of cases. In uncomplicated cases, diverting colostomy is not performed anymore, and laparoscopy treatment has been described in specialized centers. Symptomatic treatment of concomitant biliary ileus (without treating CCF) is a feasible option.Resolution of colonic biliary ileus by interventional endoscopy is reported. Conclusion CCF should be considered in differential diagnosis of diarrhea, especially in old, female patients. A possible second hepatobiliary abnormality should be always investigated. Extemporaneous frozen section should be performed if gallbladder cancer is suspected. Depending on clinical presentation, different treatments for CCF are indicated, ranging from minimally invasive procedures to extensive resection.

“…There are no specific symptoms or signs associated with duplicate gallbladders. Cholelithiasis, acute/chronic cholecystitis, empyema, fistula, torsion, papilloma and carcinoma that are seen in a single gallbladder can affect a duplicated gallbladder [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] . However, the most common complication is stone formation [14] , and the risk is similar to that of a single gallbladder [3] , [15] .…”

HighlightsDuplication of gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly that requires special attention.Preoperative diagnosis can be challenging to the surgeon who should be aware of the anatomic variations of the gallbladder and biliary system.Presence of cystic lesions adjacent to the gallbladder on imaging should raise the suspicion of gallbladder anomaly. Further diagnostic preoperative imaging is important to avoid surprises, complications and overlooking of a second gallbladder.MRCP is the imaging modality of choice for suspected duplicate gallbladder.We think the risks associated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy for duplicate gallbladders are comparable to those with non-duplicate gallbladder. However, these cases probably do better in the hand of an experienced laparoscopic surgeon or a hepatobiliary surgeon.

Gallbladder duplication. Report of one case The duplication of the gallbladder is a rare malformation, seen in one every 3.000 necropsies. It is detected preoperatively by abdominal ultrasound. We report a 28 years old female consulting for abdominal pain. An abdominal ultrasound showed the presence of cholelithiasis and a complete septum in the gallbladder lumen. During surgery, a distended and inflamed gallbladder was found with a septum that divided it in two parts, and one biliary stone. There was also a double cystic duct. The pathological study confirmed the gallbladder duplication with inflammation.
