RESUMEN
A rare case of left-sided gallbladder (sinistraposition) is reported with review of the literature. Left-sided gallbladder is very unusual, with a frequency of 0.3% of the cases, being generally associated to situs inversus. The aim of this invesigation was to establish the association between left-sided gallbladder and right-sided round ligaments. Left-sided gallbladder is a rare anomaly and has been classified into two situations: 1) gallbladder migration to the left side, and 2) development of a second gallbladder with atrophy of the original one. Left-sided gallbladder were reported to be associated with right-sided round ligaments.

Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors, whose origin comes from the embryonic mesodermal tissue remains. The liver is the most common location. Its location in the teres ligament is extremely rare. This is a 59 years old male admitted because of episodes of epigastric pain for six months. A CT scan and MRI demostrated a 2 cm diameter lesion located near the Teres ligament. Laparoscopic resection was performed. Hemangiomas are the most common benign solid tumors located in the liver. They represents 73% of all benign liver tumors. MRI is the imaging of greater certainty for diagnosis. The Teres ligament (ligamentum teres hepatis) is a fibrous cord resulting in obliteration of the umbilical vein. The location of hemangiomas in this region is extremely rare but should be considered and should make the differential diagnosis with a pedicled hepatic hemangioma or gastointestinal stromal tumors.
