A rare case of calculous gallbladder hydrops presenting with atypical abdominal and urinary symptoms
Gallbladder hydrops, otherwise known as gallbladder mucocele, is an uncommon gallbladder condition characterised by gallbladder distention and accumulation of clear mucous-like inspissated bile.
What Is an Epigastric Hernia?
An epigastric hernia occurs when an abdominal muscle weakness allows the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity) and abdominal fat tissue to push through the muscle wall.1 Epigastric hernias can be congenital (present at birth), yet many epigastric hernias are diagnosed in adults during tests for other issues because they never caused symptoms.
