Situs inversus totalis is a rare anomaly that is characterized by mirror image anatomy of the abdominal and thoracic organs. This anomaly is often discovered incidentally in adults during an emergent surgical procedure or by radiologic investigations performed for other medical reasons. Cecal volvulus is a surgical emergency requiring urgent laparotomy. Coexistence of these two abnormalities po...
Situs inversus with dextrocardia is the malposition most likely to occur with structurally normal heart; generally discovered on routine chest x-ray or physical examination performed for other reasons. These persons experience normal longevity of life and have similar risk of getting acquired disease as that of other person of same age and sex group. Symptoms related to acquired disorder may al...
Situs inversus totalis is a rare congenital disorder occurring in 1:5,000 to 1:20,000 of the births. It may be partial, where the transposition is confined to either the abdominal or the thoracic viscera, or complete, i.e. involving both cavities. Change in anatomical position of organs gives rise to abnormal location of signs and symptoms, thus posing a difficulty in diagnosing the ailment, an...
Laparoscopic surgery in a patient with Partial Situs Inversus may pose interesting challenges to the surgeon. Here we report a case of a morbidly obese young female with partial situs inversus who underwent Laparoscopic Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG). The peri-operative challenges very many and these have been enumerated. The mirror image approach is recommended in such cases for a successfu...
RATIONALE Situs inversus totalis is a rare anomaly disease in which the organs in the chest and abdomen are positioned in a mirror image reversal of normal positions. Although this has been confirmed to be associated with spinal abnormalities, reports about situs inversus totalis with congenital scoliosis remain limited. PATIENT CONCERNS We present a 9-year-old girl having congenital scoliosi...
PURPOSE Recently, it has been suggested that misprojections of the temporal retina to the contralateral hemisphere might not be specific for patients with albinism and might also be associated with the Kartagener syndrome (i.e., with situs inversus totalis in the presence of primary ciliary dyskinesia [PCD]). The authors tested whether such projection abnormalities are associated with PCD and s...
RATIONALE Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an autosomal recessive, genetically heterogeneous disorder characterised by oto-sino-pulmonary disease and situs abnormalities (Kartagener syndrome) due to abnormal structure and/or function of cilia. Most patients currently recognised to have PCD have ultrastructural defects of cilia; however, some patients have clinical manifestations of PCD and l...
Approximately 50% of iv/iv mice have situs inversus (mirror image reversal of viscera) and 40% have heterotaxia (anomalous arrangement of viscera). The occurrence of heterotaxia is independent of situs. Using the cross-intercross breeding system to put the iv gene on the SWV background, an occasional presumed iv/+ mouse was found that had an IV (situs inversus and/or heterotaxic) phenotype. Tes...
To cite: Haththotuwa HR, Dubrey SW. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2013201046 DESCRIPTION At first glance these chest radiographs appear similar. Closer inspection suggests ‘dextrocardia’ (figure 1A) and ‘dextroposition’ (figure 1B). Confusing terminology is helped if the heart’s position within the thorax and point of direction of the apex is des...
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD; MIM 242650) is an autosomal recessive disorder of ciliary dysfunction with extensive genetic heterogeneity. PCD is characterized by bronchiectasis and upper respiratory tract infections, and half of the patients with PCD have situs inversus (Kartagener syndrome). We characterized the transcript and the genomic organization of the axonemal heavy chain dynein type...
