Duplicated gallbladder with obstructive jaundice: a case report with video

Abstract: A 38-year-old male presented with painful obstructive jaundice. Ultrasound showed biliary dilatation and a duplicated gallbladder (DG). Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) imaging confirmed the diagnosis of DG and raised the suspicion of a stricture in the distal common bile duct. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiogram, sphincterotomy with small stone extraction, and biliary stent placement were accomplished, and the patient was transferred to our tertiary center. Given the report of a stricture, e… Show more

“…These represent approximately 10% and 9%, respectively. [13] Despite being the most common malignancy of the biliary tree and the third most common cancer of the gastrointestinal tract, cancer of the GB remains a rare neoplasm which displays notable geographic variability. [14,15] It is relatively less prevalent in developed countries like Australia, displaying an approximate incidence of 1.4 cases per 100,000 population.…”

“…The initial assessment is an ultrasonographic evaluation of the gallbladder and the biliary tree due to its high sensitivity and acuity for detecting pathological findings like gallstones, cholecystitis, and anatomical variations [2,3]. Imaging differential considerations, as mentioned by Bavaresco et al In 2022, includes gallbladder diverticulum, gallbladder fold, Phrygian cap, choledochal cyst, and focal region of pericholecystic fluid [3,7,9,12].…”

“…Further preoperative evaluation is recommended if suspicious findings are found during the ultrasound [2]. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), oral cholecystography, tomography, and hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan can be helpful in the structural evaluation of the biliary tree [2,3,7]. This is particularly important in gallbladder duplication.…”
