Abstract
Atrioventricular (AV) discordance and ventriculoarterial (VA) concordance in the setting of visceral situs inversus are one of the rarest forms of cardiac malformations. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of prenatal diagnosis of such rare cardiac anatomy in association with double-outlet right ventricle on fetal echocardiography. The physiology of this cardiac anomaly is similar to that of transposition of the great arteries, and the best surgical option is the atrial switch operation.Entities:
