Abstract
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital condition in which the internal organs of the thoracic and abdominal cavities experience a right-to-left reflection across the sagittal plane. We describe a case of locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus treated with minimally invasive oesophagectomy using a laparoscopic and left video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery approach in a patient with situs inversus totalis.Entities:
