Özet
Situs inversus is a rare condition in which the major organs are recersed from left to right Situs inversus presenting wnth cholelithiasis is very rare. We suggest that laparoscopic cholecytectomy is a safe and effective choice in the treatement of the cholelithiasis, and also for situs inversus patients. However the surgans must be aware of the details of left-right reversal and associated abnormalities. In this article we report a case of cholelithiasis in a patient with situs inversus totalis.
