Echogenic Wall Changes
..............................................................................................................
n
Duplicated gallbladder (Fig. 497):
x
Echogenic, longitudinally oriented, septum-like compartmentalization
x
This results in a second lumen with a wall and second cystic duct (definable by ERCP).
Fig. 497 Duplicated gallbladder (GB, GB). The smaller moiety of the duplicated gallbladder is bounded by a complete, echogenic wall extending to the second cystic duct (second duct not shown here)
n
Flexion creases, septa (Fig. 498):
x
Surface indentation with a normal layered wall structure
x
With flexion creases: kinked gallbladder
x
With true septa: echogenic connective-tissue membranes (subdividing the lumen into two or more communicating spaces). Complete longitudinal septa­tion can mimic a duplicated gallbladder. The differential diagnosis includes Heister valves in the gallbladder neck and cystic duct.

The creases may partially resolve when the patient is repositioned. b True septa (arrows) remain constant with position changes. Differential diagnosis: Heister valves
n
Cholesterosis (cholesteatosis, Fig. 499):
x
Multiple or occasionally solitary echogenic foci on the gallbladder wall (“stippled gallbladder”)

muscular layer, cholesterol deposits, and the formation of mural diverticula (Rokitansky–Aschoff sinuses)

n
Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (Fig. 501): This entity, like cholesterosis and
adenomyomatosis, belongs to the category of “cholecystoses.” Its sonographic fea­tures are nonspecific and similar to those of adenomyomatosis and cholesterosis. Patients present clinically with local tenderness and signs of inflammation.
x
Thickening of the gallbladder wall by an inflammatory mass (arising from small, inflamed mural diverticula?)
x
Possible echogenic cholesterol deposits, reverberations

Chronic cholecystitis (Fig. 502):
x
Diffuse or circumscribed echogenic wall thickening
x
Detection of stones
x
Possible decrease in gallbladder size (shrunken gallbladder)
n
Thickened echogenic wall in ascites: “Blooming effect” due to echo saturation,
as in malignant ascites with acoustic enhancement along the gallbladder wall
n
Porcelain gallbladder (Fig. 503): partial or complete calcification of the gallblad-
der wall, considered a premalignant lesion that requires operative treatment

Empyema, hydrops (see Fig. 493, p. 340, and Fig. 514, p. 350):
x
Enlarged gallbladder with slightly or markedly echogenic contents
x
Degree of enlargement: length i 80 mm, width i 40 mm

Local tenderness to palpation (Murphy’s sign)
x
Gallstones usually present
n
Cholesterol polyp (Fig. 506 ):

x
Usually echogenic with reverberations, sometimes hypoechoic
ab
Fig. 506a, b Cholesterol pseudopolyps. a Echogenic, intraluminal protuberant mass on the gallbladder wall (cursors; arrow: side-lobe artifact). b Hypoechoic sessile polyp (arrow) on the gallbladder wall. Must be differented from adenoma
n
Gallbladder adenoma (Fig. 507): tumor i 6 mm based on the gallbladder wall.
Lesions j 10 mm require close follow-up, and surgery may be considered. Lesions i 15 mm should always be extirpated as they often signify malignant change.
