Abstract

Double cystic duct in a single gallbladder is one of the least common variances encountered in the biliary system. This article presents a 54-year-old man who had a septated gallbladder with 2 separate cystic ducts. With intraoperative cholangiogram, he had successful laparoscopic cholecystectomy without any ductal injuries or complications.

Keywords: accessory cystic duct; double cystic duct; laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
