Abstract
We report a rare case of double gall bladder associated with pancreatic divisum. A 20 year old girl presented with right upper abdominal discomfort. On USG abdomen cholelithiasis was seen. Patient underwent laparoscopic Cholecystectomy; intra op findings were suggestive of double gall bladder. On HPE, there were two gall bladders with two different cystic ducts with stone in only one gall bladder. Patient complained of pain abdomen on post-operative day 3rd for which USG was done whichwas normal and patient was given conservative treatment with pain killers but patient continued to complain of pain, so a MRCP was done which revealed separate openings for santorini and wirsung duct and pancreatic divisum was diagnosed. Patient with pancreatic divisum should be followed carefully because there are more chances of pancreatitis in such patients. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report with a combination of these two conditions.
