Cholecystectomy for intrahepatic gall bladder with incidental subhepatic appendix: a challenge for the surgeon

Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Health Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Intrahepatic gall bladder (GB) is one of the ectopic locations of GB and this anomaly makes cholescystectomy hazardous. Sub Hepatic appendix, also an unusual location of appendix, presents with the complications of abscesses and collections due to the delayed diagnosis and chronic inflammation that ensues with it. The combination of these two events is even rarer and it makes a challenging situation for the surgeon.
