Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare autosomal recessive entity defined as the transposition of thoracic and intraabdominal organs forming a mirror image to the normal anatomy. Laparoscopic procedures are technically more challenging for the surgeons in case of SIT. We hereby report two cases of successful laparoscopic gastric sleeve in SIT patients.
