“…In the present study, 41 [7–47] case reports that included SIT and some type of cancer in the abdominal-pelvic region were analyzed. In the 41 reports, a total of 46 patients were analyzed, of which 19 (41.30%) correspond to female patients and 27 (58.70%) correspond to male patients.…”

Background: Situs inversus is a rare congenital anatomical variant that involves a group of anomalies regarding the arrangement of intrathoracic and intraabdominal organs. Being able to find in the abdominal region the liver, gallbladder, inferior vena cava, and head of the pancreas and ascending colon on the left side of the abdomen, while on the right side there is the spleen, the stomach, the body of the pancreas, the ligament of Treitz, descending colon among others. In this same way, the thoracic organs, lungs and heart, are changed in their position in a mirror translocation. Methods: We systematically searched MEDLINE, Web of Science, Google Scholar, CINAHL, Scopus, and LILACS; the search strategy included a combination of the following terms: “Situs inversus,” “Situs inversus totalis,” “Cancer,” “Neoplasm,” “Abdominopelvic regions,” and “clinical anatomy.” Results: Within the 41 included studies, 46 patients with situs inversus who had cancer, in addition to being found in this organ and in these regions, we also found as a result that the majority of the studies in the research were in stage II; finally, no one study could assert the direct relationship between the situs inversus totalis and the cancer. Conclusion: If our hallmarks could make us think that more exhaustive follow-up of the stomach and other organs should be carried out in these patients, there could also be other predisposing factors for cancer, which is why more studies are suggested to give future diagnostic and treatment guidelines treatment.

“…In this case report, we presented a patient with SIT and HCC. In the congenital anatomical condition known as SIT, the location of the organs and vascular system is a mirror image of that of the normal state [ 6 , 7 , 9 ]. Our patient presented with a lump below the left rib cage without pain.…”

“…In our case, anatomical resection was proposed after the identification of a clear ischemic demarcation of discoloration on the surface of the liver parenchyma. Liver resection in SIT patients can be done successfully with thorough preoperative simulations [ 7 ].…”
