Situs inversus is a rare congenital anomaly referring to the mirror image of the abdominal and thoracic viscera. It can be discovered routinely or on the occasion of a complication related or not to situs inversus. We report a case of Situs inversus discovered incidentally during surgery for acute intestinal obstruction caused by an iatrogenic uterine perforation.
