Abstract

Dextrocardia with situs inversus, commonly known as mirror-image dextrocardia, is a rare congenital malposition of the heart where the cardiac apex is oriented to the right side and involves complete transposition (right to left reversal) of all of the viscera. We present to you a case of 75 year old female with dextrocardia and situs inversus, who had presented with STEMI and was successfully managed with PCI.
