Multi-Septate Gallbladder in a Patient With Acute Cholecystitis

A very uncommon congenital defect called multi-septate gallbladder (MSG) typically results from wrinkling of the gallbladder membrane or insufficient vacuole formation of the growing bud of the gallbladder. The many septa giving MSG its honeycomb appearance cover the whole lumen of the gallbladder....

description A very uncommon congenital defect called multi-septate gallbladder (MSG) typically results from wrinkling of the gallbladder membrane or insufficient vacuole formation of the growing bud of the gallbladder. The many septa giving MSG its honeycomb appearance cover the whole lumen of the gallbladder. MSG, hyperplastic cholecystitis, and cholecystitis are a few causes of this ultrasonography finding. A large number of patients describe having persistent stomach issues, including discomfort in the epigastrium, and frequent episodes of discomfort in the abdomen with episodes of nausea. The gallbladder's reduced motility is caused by septa, which causes a halt in the passage of bile and may be the cause of persistent stomach discomfort. The purpose of this report is to provide readers with a better knowledge of this ailment and its recommended course of treatment. We are describing a case of a MSG in a 22-year-old patient. We additionally included a few instances for evaluation and analysis. According to the research that is currently accessible, congenital MSG is most likely caused by the gallbladder wall being pushed into its cavity, creating septa that contain muscle fibers. Alternative imaging techniques like magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are the best tools to make the diagnosis. The effectiveness of medical interventions is unknown; however, cholecystectomy has completely resolved symptoms in people.
