Study of Variations in External Morphology of Gall Bladder in Cadavers

Abstract

Background- In modern era increasing interventional and diagnostic procedures and laparoscopic cholecystectomy make
study of variation in external morphology of gall bladder important variation of morphology of gall bladder commonly
encounter during radiological investigation a during surgeries. Aim and Objective: To Study of Variations in External
Morphology of Gall Bladder in Cadavers. Material and Method: Study was conducted on 100 gallbladder obtained from
formalin fixed cadavers. Shape length and transverse diameter of gall bladder studied. Result: Commonest shape observed
in this study was pear shaped in 82% cases. Average length of gallbladder was found to be 6.54cm. Conclusion: - Variation
in extra hepatic billiary in not uncommon. Knowledge of this variation important for surgeon and radiologist for avoid
iatrogenic injuries during procedures.
