| Core Tip |
Ectopic liver tissue (ELT) associated with the gallbladder is an uncommon congenital anomaly, most often detected incidentally during cholecystectomy. Evidence regarding its clinical relevance, optimal management, and malignant potential remains fragmented due to reliance on isolated case reports. This Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses-guided systematic review synthesizes data from 97 published articles and additional cases to clarify demographic features, anatomical characteristics, surgical approaches, and histopathological outcomes of gallbladder-associated ELT. Although most lesions exhibit normal hepatic architecture, reported cases of hepatocellular carcinoma underscore the importance of recognition and complete excision with histopathological evaluation when ELT is encountered intraoperatively. |
