Gallbladder volvulus: a case report

E Van der Veken et al. Acta Chir Belg. 1986 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

Gallbladder volvulus, a rare disease generally affecting older aged women, is generally due to an abnormal anatomical fixation of the gallbladder. As clinical and radiological signs are poor the diagnosis is generally made at laparotomy. The prognosis is excellent when early surgical treatment is performed.
