Résumé
Volvulus of the gallbladder is one of the rarest conditions to affect the gallbladder, however, it should remain an important differential. Typically, it is diagnosed in elderly women, but it has also been reported in children and men. The lack of unique distinguishing features make diagnosis difficult to distinguish between other gallbladder pathology such as acute cholecystitis; however, delayed recognition or non-operative management is associated with higher mortality. We present the case of a 92-year-old woman who presented with this pathology, had diagnosis established preoperatively and was successfully treated with a cholecystectomy.
