چکیده

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation is feasible in patients with situs inversus totalis. Orientation challenges are improved with the use of electroanatomical mapping prior to transseptal puncture. Care must be taken to note the opposing anatomic locations of important structures such as the left atrial appendage, descending aorta, and phrenic nerve.

Percutaneous Mitral Valvotomy in a Case of Situs Inversus Totalis and Juvenile Rheumatic Critical Mitral Stenosis: Case Report

Situs inversus totalis is a rare congenital disorder where the heart being a mirror image is situated on the right side of the body. Distorted cardiac anatomy makes fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous mitral valvotomy (PMV) technically challenging and there are only few reports of PMV in situs inversus totalis. Here we report a case where PMV was successfully done for situs inversus totalis with ra...

Myocardial Perfusion SPECT Imaging in Dextrocardia with Situs Inversus: A Case Report

Dextrocardia is a cardiac positional anomaly in which the heart is located in the right hemithorax with its base-to-apex axis directed to the right and caudad. Situs inversus is an autosomal recessive disorder that causes organs in the chest and abdomen to be positioned in a mirror image from their normal position. Dextrocardia may occur in isolation or as part of situs inversus. Similarly, sit...

Late right pulmonary artery stenosis after arterial switch operation in mirror image dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis.

The operation of D-transposition of the great arteries is performed extremely rarely in patients with mirror image dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis. Therefore, it is not surprising that such unusual anatomy case presents problems with primary operation. We present a case of late right pulmonary artery stenosis after neonatal surgical anatomic correction of mirror image dextrocardia and s...
