A case of multiple hemangiomata of the liver is reported in an infant who presented signs and symptoms strongly suggesting congenital heart disease. The post mortem examination revealed no gross anomalies of the heart or great vessels, but did show a heart with cardiac hypertrophy. A mechanism to explain the cardiac failure in this case is discussed.

Situs Inversus with levocardia is an unusual condition, in which the main organs of the thorax and abdomen are located in a reverse or enantiomorphic position in relation to the usual topography. It is estimated a prevalence of 1:10000 people with some Situs Inversus condition, but Situs Inversus with Levocardia is reported in only 1:22000 cases. The presence of acute cholecystitis in patients is an extremely rare event,however, one of its possible complications, Gallbladder Empyema can develop, causing an increase in severity and the need for surgical intervention. Since the inversion of abdominal organs proper to Situs Inversus with levocardia is commonly associated with the transposition of great vessels, fatally, as described in the literature of Vesicle empyema and Situs Inversus, it only occurred in patients with dextrocardia, not yet being reported in patients with Levocardia. We report a case of a female patient with pain in the left hypochondrium with Situs Inversus Viscerum, Levocardia, Empyema of Biliary Vesicles and Morbid Obesity.

Introduction: Pectus Excavatum usually recognized during infancy and become worse with growing ages. Case presentation: We presented a 6 months old male child to our departmental OPD with complaints of indrawing of anterior chest wall. On physical examination revealed a signicant Pectus Excavatum deformity. There was no other abnormality except the chest wall deformity. An abnormal chest X-ray and CT scan demonstrated leftward displacement of heart and great vessels. Conclusion: Surgery for Pectus Excavatum is specialized and can be done in early childhood with better outcome.

Leiomyosarcomas of the great vessels are rare, but the most common site for them is the inferior vena cava. Due to non-specific clinical signs, diagnosis is usually late. At present, surgery is the treatment of choice. This is a case report of a 44-year-old man who presented with left groin discomfort and a left varicocele which were secondary to leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava.
