A 66-year-old female of left-sided gallbladder with accessory liver was reported. These anomalies were recognized during an operation of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The gallbladder was located with its liver bed at the lateral segment of the liver. The cystic duct branched from the right side of the common bile duct, and turned in hairpin form in the left direction. The cystic artery branched from the right hepatic artery. There was the accessory liver on the wall of the gallbladder.
A careful identification of the cystic duct and the portal vein was advocated in surgery of the left-sided gallbladder.
