Situs inversus with dextrocardia with multiple cardiac lesions in adult.

Situs inversus with dextrocardia is the malposition most likely to occur with structurally normal heart; generally discovered on routine chest x-ray or physical examination performed for other reasons. These persons experience normal longevity of life and have similar risk of getting acquired disease as that of other person of same age and sex group. Symptoms related to acquired disorder may also lead to discovery of such cardiac malposition. Incidence of congenital cardiac anomalies in dextrocardia with situs inversus is very low globally but its figure in Nepal is not known. We report an adult of 43 years age having situs inversus with dextrocardia associated with multiple cardiac lesions i.e. ventricular septal defect, aortic regurgitation, mitral regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation.
