Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare condition in which cardiac and abdominal organs are inverted from their normal left-sided orientation. Mirizzi syndrome, characterized by the obstruction of the common hepatic duct or the common bile duct by gallstone, is a rare condition. Mirizzi syndrome co-occurrence in SIT patients is rare. Gallbladder in sinistroposition is extremely uncommon in SIT patients. We report a known case of diabetes, ventricular septal defect with transposition of the great arteries in a 32-year-old female who presented with jaundice, cholangitis, chills, and fever that had lasted for 10 days. She was confirmed to have SIT with type III Mirizzi syndrome following a series of diagnostic procedures. Primarily, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography along with common bile duct stenting was performed to initially reduce cholangitis. After an eight-week follow-up after the reduction of cholangitis, surgery was conducted. Mirror-imaged ports were used for the laparoscopic procedure, and the surgeon was on the patient's right side rather than the usual left side. The patient was discharged from the hospital following two days of uneventful healing.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is of one the most common general surgical operations performed today. Concomitant choledocholithiasis occurs in roughly 10-20% of patients with symptomatic gallstones. Laparoscopic bile duct exploration (LBDE) offers a single-stage minimally-invasive solution to the management of choledocholithiasis. LBDE may be performed either via the transcystic route or via laparoscopic choledochotomy. A number of strategies to improve success are available to the surgeon to help in the problem of complicated choledocholithiasis, these range from simple maneuvers to the use of laser or mechanical lithotriptors. With the advances in laparoscopic surgery, it is also possible to handle complex surgical conditions such as Mirizzi syndrome or recurrent pyogenic cholangitis laparoscopically, even though these have yet to be accepted as standard of care. Following laparoscopic choledochotomy, options for closure include: primary closure, closure over a T-tube, and closure over an endobiliary stent. T-tube placement has been associated with increased operating time and hospital length of stay compared to primary closure, with no significant differences in morbidity. Based on the available literature, LBDE appears comparable to ERCP with regards to procedural efficacy and morbidity. LBDE remains relevant to the general surgeon and is best viewed as being complementary to endoscopic therapy in the management of choledocholithiasis.
