[Reimplantation of the gallbladder. Indications and results].

There is no good reason why a gallbladder that has been compressed and displaced by a parasitic or malformative cyst, but is otherwise free of anatomical or irreversible lesions, should be irrevocably sacrificed. Treatment of the primary lesion can thus be followed by re-implantation of the gallbladder. The indications for this surgical technique and its limitations are described with reference to a personal series.
