Abstract

Gallbladder duplication is a rare congenital biliary anomaly that can pose diagnostic and surgical challenges due to anatomical variations, particularly when duplicated cystic ducts are present. We report the case of a patient who presented with recurrent right upper quadrant pain associated with cholelithiasis and was scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. During surgery, a duplicated gallbladder with two cystic ducts was unexpectedly identified. Intraoperative findings confirmed the anomaly, and careful dissection of Calot's triangle allowed safe identification and ligation of the biliary structures, enabling successful resection of both gallbladders without complications. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 1. This case underscores the importance of meticulous intraoperative assessment of biliary anatomy and demonstrates that laparoscopic management can be safe and effective in symptomatic patients, even when gallbladder duplication is not recognized preoperatively.
