Case of living donor liver transplantation in a patient with biliary atresia combined with situs inversus.

Until recently, situs inversus was considered to be an absolute contraindication for liver transplantation. However, recent reports have suggested that situs inversus should not be considered a contraindication. This study presents a successful living donor liver transplantation performed in a 4-month-old male infant with biliary atresia and situs inversus. The surgical findings revealed abdominal situs inversus with polysplenia and an absent retrohepatic inferior vena cava and intestinal malrotation.
