Core Tip	In the absence of situs inversus, left sided gallbladders are rare anomalies. They are most commonly encountered during surgery as they usually present with right sided pain and routine preoperative testing fails to identify them. Various biliary, portal venous and other anomalies are associated with left sided gallbladders and their spectrum is reviewed in this article. Recognition of these associated anomalies will help achieve safety in hepatobiliary procedures and prevent injuries.
