Left side located cholelithiasis case: A Case Report

Left-sided gallbladder

Abstract

A left-sided gallbladder is a gallbladder located on the left side of the round and falciform ligament. It constitutes an uncommon anatomic abnormality. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures and in case of left-sided gallbladder, it seems to be safe as long as safety rules are followed and specific strategies are considered. We report a case of a left-sided gallbladder identified during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and discuss the different forms of left-sided gallbladder and the surgical relevance of this anomaly.
