Publication Accessory Lobe of Liver Associated with a “Bean Shaped” Gall Bladder(Kathmandu University, 2016) Nayak Satheesha B, , ,; Reghunathan D; George BM; Mishra, SABSTRACT Occurrence of accessory lobes of liver and anomalies of gall bladder is quite common. A thorough knowledge of their variation can minimise diagnostic and surgical errors. We found concurrent variations of liver and gall bladder. A small accessory liver lobe was attached to the quadrate lobe through a stalk formed by peritoneum. The gall bladder was “bean shaped” due to the presence of a constriction in the middle of its body. Since the accessory lobe was quite close to gall bladder, it could compress the gall bladder and hinder normal functioning of it. The knowledge of these variations might be of importance to radiologists and surgeons dealing with the hepatobiliary system.
