The gallbladder is supplied by a branch of the cystic artery running on its free surface, and a deep branch that lies between the gallbladder and liver. Identification of each branch avoids bleeding from an intact deep branch during dissection of the body of the gallbladder. Sometimes both branches arise from the right hepatic with a common trunk as shown.

When the cystic branches arise independently, the branch to the free surface of the gallbladder is encountered first.

Once the first branch is divided, further dissection beneath the infundibulum can identify the deep branch.
