Overcoming Anatomical Challenges: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in Situs Inversus Totalis.

Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare genetic condition characterized by the sagittal inversion of thoracoabdominal organs. Surgeons may face substantial challenges when dealing with surgical pathologies in SIT patients, particularly those involving the gallbladder and bile ducts, such as cholelithiasis and acute cholecystitis. In this report, we present the case of a 46-year-old male with a previously known diagnosis of SIT, who presented with recurrent episodes of atypical abdominal pain.

[Purpura fulminans. Presentation of a clinical case].

Purpura fulminans is a catastrophic febrile illness, characterized by confluent ecchymosis skin lesions, low blood pressure an disseminated intravascular coagulation. The case of 32 year old female ratify that it is not only a pediatric condition. We emphasize the importance of an early diagnosis and the adequacy of the treatment.
