abstract = "INTRODUO: Anomalias da morfologia heptica so entidades raras causadas por desenvolvimento embriolgico anormal do fgado. Podem ser classificadas como anomalias devido a desenvolvimento defeituoso do fgado (agenesia, aplasia e hipoplasia) ou devido ao desenvolvimento excessivo (lobos acessrios). RELATO DO CASO: Paciente de 48 anos, do sexo feminino, obesa (IMC=40), que procurou o servio de emergncia com quadro de colecistite aguda. A paciente foi submetida a colecistectomia videolaparoscpica e durante o procedimento cirrgico foi verificada a agenesia do lobo heptico esquerdo. A vescula biliar estava em sua topografia habitual e no havia parnquima heptico esquerda do ligamento falciforme. A colecistectomia foi realizada sem intercorrncias e uma banda gstrica foi colocada para o tratamento da obesidade mrbida. Ela recebeu alta aps 60 horasINTRODUCTION: Anomalies of hepatic morphology are rare entities caused by abnormal embryological development of the liver. They can be classified as anomalies due to defective development (agenesis, aplasia or hypoplasia) or anomalies due to excessive development of the liver (accessory lobes). CASE REPORT: A 48 years old obese female looked for emergency assistance with acute cholecystitis. An incidental finding of left hepatic lobe agenesis was observed when the patient was submitted to laparoscopic cholecystectomy. There was no hepatic parenchyma to the left of falciform ligament and gallbladder was settled on its normal position. Cholecystectomy was performed uneventfully and an adjustable gastric band was placed for the treatment of the morbid obesity. The patient was discharged after 60 hours.",
