Abstract

Ectopic liver is a rare anomaly of the liver. We have recently experienced two cases of ectopic liver on the gallbladder that were encountered incidentally during endoscopic surgery. Both patents underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy with a diagnosis of gall stone, when brown nodule with a smooth surface was found out on the gallbladder in them. There was no communication between the nodule and liver and nodule with gallbladder was successfully excised in both cases. Histopathologically both resected specimen were demonstrated to be ectopic liver on the gallbladder with normal liver tissue.
