We report two cases of coexistent left-sided gallbladder and right-sided ligamentum teres with portal vein anomalies documented by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography during arterial portography (CTAP). Reformatted 3D MR and CTAP images provide an informative illustration of the accompanying portal vein anomalies. This important anatomical information is useful in preoperative work-up of hepatobiliary surgery.
