The authors report the case of a 24 year old female referred to the General Hospital of Mexico with superior right abdominal pain. After laboratory and radiology studies we diagnosticated alithiasic cholecystitis in a patient with double gallbladder. A laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed. Histologic examination reveled double gallbladder with alithiasic cholecystitis.
