Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4

Abstract

Introduction - The gallbladder is the pear shaped musculomembranous structure lodged in a fossa on the inferior surface of the right lobe of the liver and shows various anomalies and anatomic variations. For upper abdominal surgeries and radiological approach it is very important to know and understand the anatomy and different types of variations of the gall bladder. objective - Aim of this study was to study External morphology of gallbladder . Material and method:-Study was conducted on 60 gallbladder obtained from formalin fixed cadavers. Location, Shape, length and transverse diameter of gall bladder were studied. Result : - Commonest shape observed in this study was pear shaped . Average length of gallbladder was found to be 10.5cm. Mean diameter of gall bladder was 3.4 cm, folded Gall bladder and hartmann pouch were observed.
