Abstract: A finding that stands out in diagnostic imaging techniques and, certainly, in the operating room is the strange anomaly of Situs Inversus. Recent studies show the close relationship that exists between genetic traits and the probability of presenting this anomaly. Furthermore, the genetic traits found repeated in the population that presents it, seem to indicate a series of syndromes that imply a better understanding of this pathology. Today, Situs Inversus continues to be studied since it is still unknown the rotation mechanism, which not only may affect each patient's treatment, but also medicine in general.
