Abstract
We present a very rare case of duplicated gallbladder in which the acc essory gallbladder was involved by advanced adenocarcinoma with stones . In this case, MRI was the most useful modality in revealing the cyst ic formation of the accessory gallbladder with packed stones beside th e main gallbladder. Additionally, celiac angiography demonstrated the unusual form of the intrahepatic artery which enveloped the cystic tum or, that might be a diagnostic characteristic of accessory gallbladder .
