Core Tip	Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancrea?tography (ERCP) is widely applied for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreaticobiliary disease. However, this approach can be challenging in cases of anatomical variations. Total situs inversus viscerum (SIV) is a rare condition that involves a 180° reversal of all the visceral positions, which increases the difficulty of ERCP. Endoscopic access to the papilla and subsequent cannulation are difficult in these patients. However, we successfully overcame these difficulties by changing the patient’s positions during the procedure. Standard endoscopic sphincterotomy and endoscopic papillary balloon dilatation procedures were performed with no complications. Herein, we also review several related cases with summary information, key steps and technique information for ERCP in patients with SIV.
