laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for a super super obese patient with Situs Inversus totalis
Obesity Surgery, 2006Co-Authors: J M Catheline, Caroline Rosales, R Cohen, H Bihan, Jean Luc Fournier, Joel Roussel, Joseph BenichouAbstract:Situs Inversus totalis is a rare defect which can present difficulties in the management in laparoscopic surgery due to the mirror-image anatomy. Herein, we report a patient with Situs Inversus totalis and super-super-obesity (BMI 76 kg/m2). We performed successful laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Technical details of this operation, with Situs Inversus totalis, are presented. There were no major difficulties compared to patients with usual anatomy. There are potential diseases associated with Situs Inversus and obesity; therefore, a careful investigation, including a chest x-ray and cardiac and abdominal ultrasounds should be performed before surgery. Sleeve gastrectomy is an adequate procedure in super-super-obese patients with Situs Inversus totalis.

Renal cell carcinoma with Situs Inversus totalis
Urology, 1993Co-Authors: Brent F.g. Treiger, Ron Khazan, Stanford M. Goldman, Fray F. MarshallAbstract:Abstract A case of renal cell carcinoma in a patient with Situs Inversus totalis is reported. Only 8 cases of malignant neoplasms have been reported in Situs Inversus totalis, and our case represents the second case report of renal cell carcinoma in a patient with Situs Inversus totalis. The frequency of Situs inverses totalis is between I in 8,000 and I in 20,000. Cardiac and pulmonary anomalies are common in patients with Situs Inversus totalis. Renal anomalies, including agenesis, dysplasia, hypoplasia, ectopia, polycystic kidney, and horseshoe kidney, have been reported. Because of the association between Situs Inversus and cardiac, pulmonary, renal, and vascular anomalies, management of the patient with Situs Inversus and urologic disease requires careful preoperative evaluation.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Patients with Situs Inversus.
Obesity surgery, 2018Co-Authors: Dvir Froylich, Tamar Segal-abramovich, Guy Pascal, David HazzanAbstract:BACKGROUND Situs Inversus is a congenital condition in which the major visceral organs are reversed or mirrored from their normal positions. Situs Inversus is found in about 0.01% of the population. In the most common situation, Situs Inversus totalis involves complete transposition (right to left reversal) of all of the abdominal organs. Several successful and safe laparoscopic weight loss surgeries were previously reported in morbidly obese patients with Situs Inversus (Aziret et al. Obes Res Clin Pract. 32;11(5S1):144-51, 2017; Catheline et al. Obes Surg.;16(8):1092-5, 2006). METHODS We present a case of a 47-year-old female patient with a BMI of 51 kg/m2, who was referred to our clinic for the treatment of morbid obesity. Her past medical history included hypertension, type II diabetes mellitus, asthma, and Situs Inversus. During the preoperative evaluation, the chest x-ray showed dextrocardia and upper GI series showed the stomach and duodenum in a mirror position. RESULTS The operative time was 62 min, oral intake started on postoperative day 1, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 2 in good medical condition. CONCLUSIONS Situs Inversus is a rare condition that can be challenging for a laparoscopic surgeon. LSG is feasible and safe for morbidly obese patients with this anomaly. Well understanding of the mirrored image anatomy will facilitate the performance of the procedure without special difficulties by an experienced surgeon.
