Biography

Rose Marie Bentley (1919—2017) was an American hairdresser. She had a rare birth defect called situs inversus with levocardia

In 2018, after Bentley's death in 2017, medical students—Warren Nielsen and four of his classmates—at the Oregon Health and Science University in Portland made a discovery that her digestive organs were reversed compared to the normal constitution of the human body. The vital organs were almost like a mirror inside the body. According to Cameron Walker, professor of anatomy at the University of Health and Science, it is one in 50 million cases.
