Abstract

Gallbladder diseases are among the most common pathologies requiring surgical intervention in general surgery practice. Gallbladder duplication is a rare anomaly of the biliary system. Congenital anomalies and anatomical variations of the gallbladder constitute one of the significant difficulties encountered by surgeons since these variations can cause great uncertainty in defining the anatomical structures of the gallbladder and may lead to significant complications during surgery. Congenital malformations are important predisposing factors for iatrogenic bile duct injuries during cholecystectomy. This case report presents a case of symptomatic gallbladder duplication and a double cystic duct treated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
