Multiseptate gallbladder, a rare congenital anomaly, may exist as an isolated anomaly or may coexist with other biliary system anomalies. We report a case of a multiseptate, ectopic, hypoplastic gallbladder associated with a choledochal cyst. The diagnosis was made using sonography and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound 34:88–91, 2006
