Abstract
Gallbladder volvulus (GV) involves the rotation of the gallbladder along its axis, resulting in torsion. This pathology is rare, more commonly found in elderly females, but can occasionally occur in pediatric patients. Diagnosis is challenging due to often atypical symptoms, with imaging and laboratory findings typically nonspecific. Prompt surgical intervention is necessary when GV is suspected to prevent significant systemic illness. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has proven to be safe and effective in pediatric cases. In this report, we present a pediatric case of GV, initially misdiagnosed as viral-induced acalculous cholecystitis, which was effectively managed using laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
