, Zouhry Ibrahim, Rebbani Mohammed, , Halim Elmustapha, · Austin Journal of Surgery · 2024

Agenesis of the gallbladder is a rare congenital anomaly. The aim of this study is to explore, through the case we present, the epidemiological aspects of this anomaly as well as the specificities of diagnosis and therapeutic management. The patient is a 35-year-old individual with no significant medical history, who presented with hepatic colic and an ultrasound showing a sclerotic and atrophic gallbladder. A laparoscopic cholecystectomy was indicated. Intraoperatively, the gallbladder was not visualized, even after examining various ectopic sites for the gallbladder.
