situs inversus ectopic kidney nephrectomy stones case report rare associated inversus situsAbstract
Background Situs inversus totalis is a very rare congenital anatomical variation, in which all thoracic and abdominal organs are right-left inverted.
This condition is associated with an increased risk of organ malformations including ectopic kidney, which is a very rare combination.
Case presentation A 56-year-old male presented with colicky left iliac pain associated with nausea, vomiting, and irritative lower urinary symptoms.
The patient has a medical history of recurrent lower urinary infections and a family history of situs inversus totalis.
Radiological images demonstrated dextrocardia, situs inversus totalis of all the abdominal organs, and an ectopic pelvic kidney on the left side, with 4 stones inside it.
Left nephrectomy was performed due to extensive renal damage.
At discharge and during follow-up, the patient's condition was satisfactory and stable.
Conclusions The ectopic kidney may present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges when associated with situs inversus.
