Background: Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare autosomal recessive inheritance at which the abdomino-thoracic organs are mirror-image transposed. Germ cell tumors originate from the primitive germ cell of the ovary and testis.
Case Report Presentation: A rare association between malignant ovarian mixed germ cell tumor and SIT was presented in a 32-years-old Egyptian female, successfully treated with laparoscopic total abdominal hysterectomy, right salpingo-oophorectomy, and retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy (laparoscopic retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy) of both sides.

The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the long-term results of lymphatic interventions in adults with abdomino-thoracic lymphatic pathologies. Management of abdomino-thoracic chylous effusions in adults undergoing X-ray-lymphangiography with or without lymph-vessel embolization (LVE) from 2010-2018 was reviewed. Patients underwent lymphangiography alone when imaging showed normal findings or lymphatic obstruction without leakage or reflux; otherwise, LVE was performed (leakage, reflux, obstruction with leakage or reflux, lymphatic masses).
