Incidentally found situs inversus with dextrocardia: inferior myocardial infarction in an 86-year-old woman.

Bartosz Hudzik1, Lech Polonski.   

Abstract

Situs inversus with dextrocardia is a rare condition. Yet, the incidence of atheroclerosis and myocardial infarction in patients with dextrocardia is similar to that in general population. The diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is somewhat tricky and difficult if the dextrocardia is not recognized. We present the electrocardiogram, coronary angiograms, and chest radiogram of a patient with incidentally found situs inversus with dextrocardia.
