Dextrocardia

Anatomical position of the heart in the thorax.

During the inspection of the pulmonary trunk, a large ductus arteriosus (Botallo's ductus) was found. The heart apex was positioned along the heart axis and was turned to the right side, thus demonstrating the dextrocardia.

  • 1 - pulmonary trunk
  • 2 - ascending aorta
  • 3 - superior vena cava (SVC)
  • 4 - brachiocephalic trunk
  • 5 - left common carotid artery
  • 6 - left subclavial artery
  • 7 - thoracic aorta
  • 8 - hepatic tissue covering the inferior vena cava (IVC)
