Gallbladder (GB) hypomotility has been reported in adults with celiac disease (CD), but there is no literature on GB dysfunction in children with CD. We aimed to study GB motility in children with CD, before and after a gluten-free diet (GFD), using ultrasonography (USG) and technetium-99 labeled mebrofenin hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS).
