Unusual arrangement of mirror-image dextrocardia with viscero-atrial situs solitus, with morphological right atrium anterior and to the right of the morphological left atrium — diagnosis and surgery of associated defects
摘要
In this case report, we have described a novel variant of mirror-image dextrocardia associated with viscero-atrial situs solitus, and not inversus, and the embryological basis for this presentation. The use of a pericardial baffle to correct the underlying intracardiac defects and the importance of confirming the anteroposterior relations of the atria, and not just their left–right relations, while deciphering the anatomy of dextrocardia.
