Summary: ABSTRACT: Gallbladder agencies and hypoplasia are congenital anomalies that present similarly in a patient. They are often misdiagnosed due to its rarity. They have symptoms that can be attributed to common diseases and so there diagnoses are rarely thought of. But in light of better technology in diagnostic imaging at present. We are now able to identify the presence of these abnormalities and unnecessary surgeries can be avoided. The objective of this report is to provide additional information on diagnostic imaging regarding gallbladder diseases such as cholelithiasis is initially considered. If ultrasound results are unequivocal, we proceed with other modalities such as CT scan and finally, MRCP which is considered to be the best modality to use to visualize the biliary tract.
