[Gallbladder duplication. Apropos of a case of echographic finding].
Duplication of the gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly, which must be depicted by sonography, although false positive and negative diagnosis could still be made. Usually abdominal sonography allows duplication diagnosis as reported in our case and a cholecystography may be performed to determine the type of the anomaly. When a surgical procedure needs to be performed, especially in case of coelioscopic technique, surgeon needs to know the exact anatomic type of the anomaly and the number of gallbladders he will find.
