The patient presented abdominal pain, related to eating and associated with nausea and vomiting. After the image exams, it was performed the surgical procedure, without intercurrences.

Situs inversus totalis is a rare, congenital condition that is characterized by the development of the thoracic and abdominal viscera in a mirror image to their normal orientation. This case report describes the condition in a 4-year-old, spayed female Doberman pinscher that was evaluated for dyspnea following sedation. Radiography confirmed a diaphragmatic hernia. Situs inversus was discovered during surgical correction. The diaphragmatic rent was repaired, and the dog was clinically normal at recheck 13 months after surgery.

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.
