Sigmoid gallbladder in a 38-year-old female with gallstone disease: a case report
This case underscores the impact of anatomical variations on gallstone management and the critical need for preoperative imaging, like MRCP, to navigate such complexities. In resource-limited settings, adaptability during surgery and an understanding of biliary anomalies are essential for minimizing complications. The case serves as a reminder of the need for improved anatomical awareness and documentation of gallbladder anatomic variations, which could enhance surgical practices globally.
