Abstract

Cholecystectomy is the most commonly performed operation in surgery. Variations inanatomical disposition are not infrequent. However variations in number of cystic ductand gall bladder is quiet rare. This poses a diagnostic and management problem withcomplications during surgery and missed gall bladder being reported in world literature. We here by report a case of double gall bladder with double cystic duct that was managed by laparoscopic surgery.
