Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in a Patient With Situs Inversus Totalis Presenting With Cholelithiasis: A Case Report
Abstract
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the standard treatment for cholelithiasis. A very rare condition named situs inversus should not be considered as a contraindication for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Here, we reported a case of successful laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a patient with situs inversus totalis. We also described the technical advantages of this treatment and reviewed the literature.
