Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital condition that is characterized by a complete mirror image of the typical arrangement of the thoracic and abdominal viscera. Performing thoracoscopic segmentectomy for a patient with lung cancer and SIT is an extremely skilled and challenging surgical procedure.
CASE SUMMARY: A 41-year old woman with a medical history of dextrocardia since childhood was admitted to our hospital with a mixed ground-glass opacity (mGGO) in her left lung field, discovered by computed tomography during her health checkup. In order to facilitate surgical orientation, three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA) was preoperatively carried out. The result of 3D-CTBA was consistent with the diagnosis of SIT and an mGGO in the posterior segment of the left upper lobe (LS2). Surgery was conducted in accordance with preoperative 3D-CTBA and designed surgical procedure, combined with intraoperative navigation. Final pathological examination revealed in situ adenocarcinoma. The patient's postoperative condition was uneventful and no complications were observed.
CONCLUSION: We present the first case of lung cancer in a patient with SIT who successfully underwent thoracoscopic segmentectomy assisted by 3D-CTBA. This is a new technique that covers precise confirmation and dissection of targeted structures and intersegmental demarcation, and can help achieve a meticulous anatomical segmentectomy.
