- Abstract
Ectopic liver tissue is a rare developmental abnormality and is thought to be caused by aberrant migration in the embryological development of the liver. A 34-year-old female patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and ectopic liver tissue was found on the gallbaldder. Ectopic liver tissue was removed during cholecystectomy. Pathology was reported as normal liver tissue with the gallbladder tissue. Ectopic liver tissue is incidentally detected with no preoperative diagnosis. Ectopic liver tissue should be removed due to malignancy potential.
