Abstract
Situs inversus is a scarce congenital anomaly. Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a mirroring of the normal. Thoracic and abdominal viscera transposition is a characteristic feature of situs inversus. It is considered to be a premalignant condition. This uncommon genetic disorder is often identified incidentally during thoracic and abdominal imaging. The coexistence of SIT and gastric cancer is rare. Because this anomaly is known to have associated anatomical and vascular anomalies, due care is required to identify it preoperatively and during the surgical procedure. At centers with prior experience, consistent with oncological practices, open surgeries, laparoscopic surgeries, and robotic surgeries can be done. We present a patient with a stomach adenocarcinoma with SIT who underwent distal gastrectomy with gastrojejunostomy along with resection and anastomosis of the transverse colon and capecitabin-oxaliplatin chemotherapy. The postoperative course was favorable. To our knowledge, only 13 cases of diffuse-type gastric cancer in a patient with SIT have been reported in the English-language literature.
