Deskripsi
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is rare congenital recessively inherited condition in which there occurs transposition of all viscera in a mirror image form. The relationship between SIT and neoplasia is still unclear. We hereby report three rare cases (carcinoma esophagus, carcinoma lung, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma thyroid) associated with SIT. We report the first case in world literature of primary esophageal carcinoma associated with HIV and SIT.
