Right hepatic artery encircle the gallbladder: a case report

Detailed knowledge of the vascular anatomy of hepatobiliary system is important for a safe cholecystectomy. We are reporting a case of aberrant type of right hepatic artery originating from superior mesenteric artery and encircles the gallbladder that has been found during laparoscopic cholecyste...
