RESUMEN
With MRI, an intraspinal synovial cyst appears as a hypointense, rounded, intraspinal lesion bearing similar signal characteristics to cerebrospinal fluid containing a signal void within it; this can be confused with calcium or hemosiderin within the cyst. In such cases, CT imaging can lead to a diagnosis.

In two patients with hepatic cirrhosis and marked morphological distortion of the liver, the gallbladder was identified in a retrohepatic position on ultrasound and CT. The etiology of this anomalous position and the importance of the preoperative diagnosis of both congenital and acquired anomalous position of the gallbladder in patients with acute cholecystitis is discussed.
