title: Double cancer of the liver and stomach with situs inversus totalis--a case report.
abstract: A case of a 66-year-old woman with situs inversus totalis who developed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as well as stomach cancer, is reported herein. The patient was successfully treated with a left hepatic lobectomy for the HCC and a B-I gastrectomy for the stomach cancer. Careful anatomical mapping made it possible to perform a combined resection of the liver and stomach in the presence of this congenital anomaly.
