Gallbladder Agenesis with Refractory Choledocholithiasis
Congenital agenesis of the gallbladder is a rare anomaly which is usually asymptomatic and found incidentally. In some cases, however, patients are symptomatic. Common symptoms include right upper quadrant abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Jaundice is present in some symptomatic cases and is due to associated choledocholithiasis (Fiaschetti et al. 2009). In this case, a 63-year-old female p...
متن کاملGallbladder Agenesis
Gallbladder agenesis is a rare entity with an estimated incidence of 10-65 per 100,000. Females are more commonly affected (ratio 3:1), typically presenting in the 2nd or 3rd decade of life. Despite an absent gallbladder, half of patients present with symptoms similar to biliary colic, which is poorly understood. Clinicians should have a strong index of suspicion if nonvisualization is suggeste...

Agenesis of the gallbladder is a rare anomaly that is usually asymptomatic, but sometimes the patients may have symptoms compatible with a biliary disorder like cholelithiasis. Its preoperative diagnosis is often difficult, especially if dysplastic cyst is associated and simulates the gallbladder. When the diagnosis is doubtful its confirmation and treatment of dysplastic cyst require open surg...
متن کاملIsolated agenesis of the gallbladder.
We report a rare case of agenesis of the gallbladder, which was misdiagnosed as cholecystitis. This is the first reported case from the Middle East. Despite advances in biliary imaging, the diagnosis is usually made at surgery. Like most patients, our patient became asymptomatic after the surgery. Extensive dissection to exclude the presence of gallbladder in an ectopic site is discouraged.

BACKGROUND Congenital absence of the gallbladder is a rare, usually asymptomatic, anatomical variation. Some affected individuals may present with a clinical picture suggestive of gallbladder disease. This presentation, coupled with the inability of standard abdominal ultrasonography to convincingly diagnose agenesis of the gallbladder, can put the surgeon in a diagnostic and intraoperative dil...
