Abstract
Remnant gallbladders have been described following incomplete and sub-total cholecystectomy (TC) and have the potential to harbour gallstones and even produce new calculi over time. We present a case of choledocholithiasis in a patient with a remnant gallbladder following a presumed incomplete cholecystectomy more than 20 years prior.
