What is a distended gall bladder?

Full: A gallbladder can become distended or full due to multiple gallstones or from gallstones blocking the gallbladder from emptying its bile fluid contents. Also the gallbladder can become distended or full with bile in someone who has been not eating or fasting a longer time.
