Congenital absence of gallbladder is one of the rare anomalies that poses a problem on the operation. This is combined usually with other biliary anomalies, stones, and other systemic fatal congenital anomalies. Diagnosis can be only confirmed by
surgical exploration when GB absence has symptoms of cholecystitis or choledocholithiasis. The symptoms of most cases are relieved by prompt operative treatment. cholangiogram in this case demonstrated absence of the gallbiadder and no
intrahepatic
gallbladder. Prognosis will be relatively good, if its other congenital anomalies are not combined.
