Gallbladder agenesis (GA) is a rare congenital anomaly of the biliary system often associated with other congenital abnormalities. Patients become symptomatic in 23% of cases. GA is often misinterpreted as other diseases, therefore, leading to unnecessary surgery. We report a case of congenital GA associated to cystic duct absence and a biliary tract abnormality diagnosed by Magnetic Resonance with Cholangiopancreatography.

Gallbladder agenesis (GA) is a rare congenital anomaly of the biliary system often associated with other congenital abnormalities. Patients become symptomatic in 23% of cases (Richards et al., 1993). GA is often misinterpreted as other diseases, therefore, leading to unnecessary surgery. Many of these patients develop a typical symptomatology of cholelithiasis that leads them to operating theatre. If an operative procedure is done, it is better to remain at the level of laparoscopy because further surgical investigation may lead to detrimental biliary tract injuries (Waisberg et al., 2002). We present a case of GA, diagnosed by magnetic resonance with cholangiopancreatography.

Spontaneous Subcapsular bilioma is an extrabiliary intrahepatic collection of bile in subcapsular location commonly occurring after biliary trauma or surgery. It rarely occurs in absence of any underlying biliary abnormality. We report a such a case with no known underlying biliary tract abnormality except for a solitary gall stone. We bring into discussion whether this type of bilioma can be labeled as idiopathic spontaneous variety in presence of gall stone.Keywords: bile; idiopathic; subcapsular bilioma.
