Left video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery esophagectomy in a patient with situs inversus totalis and Kartagener syndrome.
[esophageal adenocarcinoma]
A
67
-
year
-old
man
with
situs
inversus
totalis
and
Kartagener
syndrome
was
diagnosed
with
esophageal
adenocarcinoma
after
presenting
with
chronic
gastroesophageal
reflux
.
Resection
of
the
tumor
was
done
by
minimally
invasive
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
using
a
left
video-assisted
thoracoscopic
surgery
approach
,
rather
than
the
typical
right
video-assisted
thoracoscopic
surgery
.
Patients
with
situs
inversus
totalis
may
be
considered
for
fully
minimally
invasive
esophagectomy
with
laparoscopic
gastric
mobilization
and
video-assisted
thoracoscopic
surgery
esophagectomy
with
an
intrathoracic
anastomosis
using
a
similarly
opposite-sided
approach
.
Patients
with
Kartagener
syndrome
are
also
at
increased
risk
for
respiratory
tract
infections
.
This
should
be
considered
in
the
perioperative
period
,
as
well
as
when
considering
induction
chemoradiation
therapy
.
