  • Title: [Symptomatic aorto-iliac aneurysm and situs viscerum inversus: case report].
    Author: Baccellieri D, Mirenda F, Mandolfino T, La Spada M, Stilo F, Spinelli F.
    Journal: Chir Ital; 2006; 58(1):113-6. PubMed ID: 16729618.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of infrarenal symptomatic aorto-iliac aneurysm in a patient with acute abdominal pain. The patient was admitted to the emergency care unit for abdominal pain and CT scans showing an infrarenal aorto-iliac aneurysm in a situs viscerum inversus (SVI) totalis syndrome. The patient underwent open aneurysm repair with an aorto-iliac bifurcated graft. This case shows that situs viscerum inversus cannot be considered a technical problem for the surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
