ABSTRACT

Situs inversus totalis or situs inversus-dextroacardia is a rare congenital anomaly which is characterized by reverse position of adnominal and thoracic viscera. This anomaly was detected in an eight- month-old female baby after a barium enema examination which showed reversed position of colonic frame. The sigmoid and descending colons were located in the right side of abdomen and ascending colon and cecum in the left side. Plain chest x-ray and abdominal ultrasonography confirmed the anomaly by evidence of right side cardiac position and reversed location of abdominal organs, respectively.
