Abstract

Double gallbladder is a rare anomaly and an asymptomatic condition. However, it can sometimes present with abdominal pain. Gallbladder pathology requires precise diagnosis and a surgical procedure to relieve its symptoms. Here, we discuss a case of a child suffered from a congenital heart disease who presented with double gallbladder having gallstones. The case was resolved via surgical intervention without postoperative complications.
