Core Tip	This first-documented case describes a 73-year-old woman with two concurrent diagnoses: Functional gallbladder disorder (FGBD) and left-sided gallbladder, presenting with 20-year epigastric pain. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography imaging were pivotal in identifying the ectopic gallbladder adherent to the left hepatic lobe. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy successfully resolved symptoms despite anatomical complexity, with postoperative pathology confirming absence of stones, sludge, or inflammation. The case highlights the necessity of advanced preoperative imaging (e.g., magnetic resonance pancreatography) to map biliary anatomy and guide surgical strategies in ectopic gallbladder cases. Clinicians should consider dual gallbladder pathologies in chronic abdominal pain and prioritize laparoscopic approaches with intraoperative flexibility to mitigate bile duct injury risks.
