Abstract:
Situs inversus is a rare anomaly with a genetic predisposition. We report a patient with situs inversus, cholelithiasis, and choledocholithiasis who was treated successfully with laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic exploration of the common bile duct. We believe this to be the first such case reported in the literature.
