title: A case of concomitant intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration and situs inversus totalis.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Situs inversus is a rare congenital abnormality involving partial or complete transposition of the thoracic or abdominal viscera. In situs inversus totalis, both the thoracic and abdominal viscera are transposed. The incidence of this condition is 0.01% to 0.02%. Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) is a rare congenital abnormality of the respiratory tract with an incidence of 0.15% to 1.80%. Intralobar sequestration is uncommonly associated with congenital anomalies.
  
  
  METHODS
  A routine chest X-ray of a 41-year-old asymptomatic man showed dextrocardia, a left-sided liver, right-sided stomach, and left paracardiac opacity.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Computed tomography (CT) and CT pulmonary angiography revealed dextrocardia with situs inversus totalis and left paracardiac intralobar BPS in the lingular segment of the left upper lobe.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We present a rare case of combined situs inversus totalis and intralobar BPS with an atypical location and feeder artery.
