We report a case of sigmoid colon cancer associated total situs inversus in a 78-year-old man. The patient was palliatively treated with a simple sigmoidectmy for sigmoid colon cancer because of massive hepatic metastasis. The resected sigmoid colon showed a localized and ulcerative carcinoma and was histologically, of a moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma. The patient died of cancer 6 months after the operation. Detailed preoperative evaluation of the patient with total situs inversus and cancer of the abdominal organ is essential in making decisions. When operating on such patients, the ideal position of the surgeon is always on the side of the body that contains the diseased organ for adequate access and orientation.
