Gallbladder hydrops, otherwise known as gallbladder mucocele, is an uncommon gallbladder condition characterised by gallbladder distention and accumulation of clear mucous-like inspissated bile. Patients with gallbladder hydrops are usually asymptomatic and incidentally diagnosed on cross-sectional imaging or diagnostic laparoscopy. This case report presents a rare case of calculous gallbladder hydrops measuring 217mm in maximal length in a 56-year-old female presenting with atypical abdominal and urinary symptoms. The radiological and intraoperative images will also be presented to highlight the extensiveness of the disease and therefore the importance of considering gallbladder hydrops as a differential in these patients.
胆囊积水，又称胆囊黏液囊肿，是一种罕见的胆囊疾病，其特征为胆囊扩张以及清亮黏液样浓缩胆汁的积聚。胆囊积水患者通常无症状，多在横断面成像检查或诊断性腹腔镜检查时偶然被发现。本病例报告呈现了一例罕见的结石性胆囊积水病例，患者为一名56岁女性，最大长度达217mm，伴有非典型腹部和泌尿系统症状。文中还将展示放射学和术中图像，以突出该疾病的广泛性，进而强调在这些患者中将胆囊积水作为鉴别诊断的重要性。
