Situs inversus totalis (SIT) has an incidence in the general population of 1/10,000, with a female-male ratio of 1:1.5 without racial predilection. Clinically, SIT by itself tends to be asymptomatic; however, when it is associated with other conditions such as cholecystitis or appendicitis, the diagnosis may represent a challenge due to the reversed anatomical location of symptoms.
