Description
Summary:A 4-year-old male child presented with complaints of abdominal pain and vomiting along with yellowish discoloration of the eyes. Investigations were suggestive of acute pancreatitis and double gall bladder (GB) with dilated common bile duct (CBD) with intraluminal calculi and Type II choledochal cyst. He underwent surgical resection of double GB with dilated CBD with hepatico-docho-jejunostomy. On follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic. Our case highlights the importance of preoperative diagnosis to deal with increased operative difficulty and complications.
