Patient: Male, 24-year-old Final Diagnosis: Situs inversus with double superior vena cava Symptoms: Abdominal pain Clinical Procedure: — Specialty: Surgery ## Objective: **Rare coexistence of disease or pathology** ## Background: Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is an uncommon condition characterized as a congenital disorder in which the visceral organs are inverted relative to their typical anatomical position. SIT with double superior vena cava (SVC) is an even rarer presentation. Due to the underlying anatomical difference, the diagnosis and treatment of gall-bladder stones in patients with SIT are challenging. ## Case Report: We report the case of a 24-year-old male patient who presented with an intermittent history of epigastric pain for 2 weeks. Clinical assessment and radiological investigations confirmed gall bladder stones with evidence of SIT and double superior vena cava (SVC). The patient underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) with an inverted laparoscopic approach. The recovery from the operation went smoothly, the patient was discharged from the hospital the following day, and the drain was removed on the third postoperative day. ## Conclusions: Because anat
