Cholangiographic appearance of multiseptate gallbladder: case report and a review of the literature.
A case of multiseptate gallbladder is described, with a review of the literature. This is the 24th such case report. The patient complained of right upper quadrant pain, colicky in nature. Abdominal ultrasonography showed multiple fine echoes within the gallbladder. On endoscopic retrograde cholangiography, multiple radiolucent lines crossing the gallbladder in various directions were noted within the gallbladder. The gallbladder was crisscrossed by numerous delicate septations and had a honeycomb appearance. These findings suggested multiseptate gallbladder.
