When this same area was reevaluated with the more accurate gray scale technique, the folded-fundus deformity was clearly visualized.A wide range of normal gallbladder variations are seen on gallbladder imaging. The average of recurrence was two times (range 1–6). Death caused by gallstones is uncommon and accounts for roughly 5000 of the 2.2 million deaths per year in the United States. tomography (CT). The Phrygian cap usually is asymptomatic and without pathological significance. This is the first nationwide study to define the relative impact of key clinical factors on choice of therapy for CLM. We observed a double pouched gallbladder in an adult male cadaver. Al-Ashqar M, Maliyakkal AK, Shiwani MH, Anwar S. BMJ Case Rep, 2013, 04 Oct 2013 Cited by: 1 article | PMID: 24096071 | PMCID: PMC3822270. There is inconclusive evidence that it leads to an increase in cholecystitis. 1935;33:589.Rappaport AM, Wanless IR: Diseases of the Liver, ed 7. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is now the most common laparoscopic operation performed by general surgeons.This chapter documents anatomical variations in the gallbladder, extrahepatic bile ducts, and cystic artery.
Nowadays, multiphase MRI, or multiphase CT in case of MRI contraindication, are the first choices of hepatobiliary imaging.Perioperative photograph of the gallbladder. As a benign anatomical variant, Phrygian caps should not be mistaken for a pathology and does not require treatment. We discuss the clinical and radiological importance of the case.Gallbladder could have various abnormalities; however duplication of gallbladder is a rare variation.

(Ober WB, Wharton RN On the “phrygian cap.” 255:571-572 New England Journal of Medicine 1956The cap was a symbol of freedom and the pursuit of liberty.The cap was worn by King Midas who was cursed with donkey ears by Apollo. Its anterior pouch was covered by peritoneum, whereas the posterior pouch was covered by extrahepatic connective tissue.
BMJ Case Reports 2013, 2013. Phrygian cap gallbladder should be a differential diagnosis considered when a mass is found associated with the gallbladder or liver adjacent to gallbladder. [1][2][3][4] This abnormality was first described by Boyden in 1935, [2][3]... [1][2][3][4] This abnormality was first described by Boyden in 1935, [2][3][4][5] and its estimated incidence is 4%. Although clinical factors influence choice of therapy, surgical subspeciality and physician experience are also important determinants of care. (The phrygian cap is a common normal variant of gallbladder shape characterized a fundus that is folded forward. Totally, the sensitivity of FDG-PET was 95.7% and its accuracy was 94.2%, whereas those of CT were 87.1% and 87.1%, respectively.ConclusionFDG-PET could visualise a malignant lesions at earlier stage, and was an effective modality to evaluate not only disease spread but distant metastasis for recurrence of colorectal cancer. Liver metastasis, lung metastasis, and metastatic colon IntroductionFluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has been accepted as an effective tool of diagnosis and staging for patients with known or suspected recurrent colorectal cancer.Methods This deformity was, in retrospective, detected on the preoperative MRI scan. The gallbladder was folded to have a sigmoid shape. It may be partially or completely duplicated [1,2], or may be septate [3] or may possess a phrygean cap ... 11 Yet this has not been confirmed; so Phrygian cap has been considered as an unimportant anatomical variation in clinical practice. During perioperative inspection, a gallbladder with a folded fundus was seen. Anatomical variations in the gallbladder may affect its volume, attachments, shape, number, position, and wall. The Greeks knew of the cap as an Oriental headgear that was tight fitting and conical in shape and it has been depicted in their art.
Treatment for cholecystitis before Langenbuch was stone extraction from spontaneous cutaneous biliary fistula or skin incision of near-pointing empyema. This operation followed scientific experiment, careful thought, cadaver dissections and careful patient selection. Case 1: A 67-year-old male patient underwent anterior rectal resection, partial hepatectomy(S4, S5, S5/8) and cholecystectomy for rectal cancer with liver metastasis in July 2006(pSS, pN0, sH1, sP0, sM0, Stage IV, Cur B). This hypo-intensity is caused by the Phrygian cap and was seen on the MRI in retrospect.This statue wears a conical headdress which fits closely around the head and is characterized by the top pulled forward. The result of this folding is the establishment of a “T-shaped” diverticulum which projects ventrally and cephalically from the gut tract. In the disease spreading group, 23 cases with localised disease spread by FDG-PET findings were indicated operation, 14 cases with diffused disease spread were judged as contraindication of operation. The hepatic diverticulum is established by the 20 somite-stage embryo. Der zweite Abschnitt des Kapitels beschäftigt sich mit den Formvarianten, Fehlbildungen und tumorartigen Läsionen, die schematisch, tabellarisch und im histologischen Bild dargestellt werden.Phrygian cap and its rare relative, pseudo-duplication of the gallbladder, are two radiologic findings that may be revealed on ultrasound evaluation. A Phrygian cap, however, has no pathological significcholecystectomy to make the wedge resection easier to perform.
Langenbuch carried out a cholecystectomy in 1882 and subsequently recommended choledochotomy, duodenotomy and sphincterotomy in the management of stones in the bile ducts. Radiological evaluation of such anomalies and their management with reference to literature are discussed in this report.Sixteen patients with a "phrygian cap" deformity of the gall bladder seen with oral cholecystography were further evaluated with both bistable and gray scale ultrasound. A Phrygian cap, however, has no pathological significance and normally causes no symptoms.
