A retro- or suprahepatic location of the gallbladder and compensatory hypertrophy of the left liver lobe and or caudate lobe may give support to the diagnosis. Before diagnosing congenital agenesis of the lobe, lobar atrophy due to cirrhosis, cholangiocarcinoma or any other predisposing conditions should be eliminated.
