dc.description.abstractDextrocardia associated with situs solitus (so called ‘dextroversion’) is a cardiac positional anomaly in which the heart is located in the right hemithorax with its base-toapex axis directed to the right and caudad along with normal anatomical position of other intrathoracic and abdominal viscera. The malposition is intrinsic to the heart and not caused by extracardiac abnormalities. Dextroversion is the second most common type of dextrocardia. In dextroversion, there is a 90% incidence of additional cardiac malformations, including anomalous pulmonary venous return, Tetralogy of Fallot, septal defects, pulmonic stenosis, coarctation of the aorta, and corrected TGA.Here we report a rare case of Tetralogy of Fallot in a 17 year old male with dextroversion.en_US
