Abstract
Cholecystitis is a common gallbladder pathology characterized by abdominal pain, positive Murphy sign and elevated white blood count. Abdominal ultrasound usually gives a definite diagnosis. Duplication of the gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly that can either be asymptomatic or and can present with symptoms associated with cholelithiasis, cholecystitis, cholangitis or pancreatitis. Clinically indistinguishable from regular gallbladder pathologies. The management of duplicated gallbladder is similar to that of other gallbladder diseases, if one or both gallbladders cause symptoms, cholecystectomy should be done for both gallbladders. We present a case of a 50-year-old female patient, she presented to the emergency room with abdominal pain and tenderness. Ultrasound detected a gallbladder duplication with cholecystitis in one of them and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography confirmed this diagnosis. Surgery was decided and the patient underwent full recovery. Y-shaped gallbladder duplication with cholecystitis due to cholelithiasis in one of them was the final diagnosis.
