Abstract:
Gallbladder torsion is a rare condition that involves the twisting of the gallbladder along its longitudinal axis, which can obstruct the cystic artery and cystic duct. This condition is most common in elderly patients, particularly women, and can be challenging to diagnose because it presents with similar symptoms to acute cholecystitis. The prognosis for gallbladder torsion is good if it is detected and treated early, but delays in diagnosis and treatment can lead to severe complications and even death. The recommended treatment for gallbladder torsion is emergency detorsion and cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic surgery is the preferred method of treatment, but an open surgical approach can also be used. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are essential for successful treatment and preventing complications. Therefore, it is important for clinicians to have a high index of suspicion for gallbladder torsion in patients presenting with acute abdominal pain, particularly in elderly patients, and to consider early exploration in cases of suspected gallbladder torsion.
