A Rare Entity of Gall Bladder: Ectopic Liver (Choristoma)
,
Abstract
Ectopic liver is defined as the presence of normally organized liver tissue outside its normal location. It is frequently found in the gallbladder. Ectopic liver is normally as- ymptomatic and only discovered incidentally. We report a case of 51- year- old wom- an with ectopic liver and we also review the characterization of this rare entity .This report adds another case to the very rarely reported ectopic liver located in the gall- bladder.
