Imaging findings of gallbladder duplication due to two cases: case report and review of literature.

چکیده
Duplication of the gallbladder, a rare congenital anomaly, is important in clinical practice as it may cause some clinical, surgical, and diagnostic problems. This anomaly is also important for surgeons due to the increased risk of complications especially after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We report ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography findings in two cases of a symptomatic duplicated gallbladder.

متن کاملA Rare Case of Duplication of Chromosome 2 (q31.3q36.3) in a 4.5-year-old Boy and Review of the Literature

To our knowledge and search in English literature there are less than 20 reported cases of isolated 2q duplication. Hereby we introduce a 4.5-year-old Iranian boy of a non-consanguineous marriage who was referred ...
متن کاملA Large Solitary Hemangioblastoma of the Lateral Ventricles: A Case Report and Literature Review

We present a case of a 30-year-old man with generalized tonic clonic seizures. The brain computed tomography showed a 5.5 cm heterogeneous mass extending into both lateral ventricles with partial enhancement. Based on the s...
