TL;DR
This paper reports the second known case of a rare gallbladder malformation with three interconnected lobes.
Contribution
The study presents the second documented case of a true trilobed gallbladder, distinguishing it from other gallbladder anomalies.
Findings
A true trilobed gallbladder is an extremely rare malformation.
The three lobes are interconnected by narrow necks and drain through a single cystic duct.
Abstract
Congenital anomalies of gallbladder are very rare and a true trilobed anomaly of the gallbladder is extremely rare that there is only a single case report in the world literature. This case presents the second case of a true trilobed gallbladder, a different entity from the triple gallbladders, where 3 different lobes of the gallbladder are interconnected to each other by a narrow neck like communication and drains to a single cystic duct through one of the lobes.
