Dextrocardia con situs inversus. Análisis cardiológico comprensible

Abstract

We present the case of a patient with a history of dextrocardia who attended the first cardiological evaluation. Clinically
asymptomatic with cardiac examination performed on the right hemithorax. The electrocardiogram showed typical characteristics of dextrocardia with left atrial electrical activation, the chest X-ray, in addition to demonstrating cardiac malposition, showed signs of inversion in laterality of abdominal organs, while echocardiography revealed a specular arrangement of the cardiac chambers and great vessels. These studies confirmed the diagnosis of Dextrocardia with situs inversus.
