ABSTRACT
The presence of situs inversus (SI) causes difficulty in the repair of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF). We report two cases the first infant had situs SI abdominis with a right-sided aortic arch and the second had situs inversus totalis. To our knowledge, these are the first reported cases of repair of EA/TEF in a patient with SI.
