A case of situs inversus with discordant atrio-ventricular and ventriculo-arterial structures was diagnosed at the ultrasonography examination performed at 34 weeks gestation. This observation underscores the importance of recognizing the position of the viscerae and discordant segments of the heart, atria, ventricles and greater vessels. Overall frequency of situs inversus is estimated at 1/10,000 births. It is often associated with an inborn cardiopathy, especially corrected transposition of the greater vessels resulting from abnormal rotation of the cardiac tube. The anatomic, pathologic, embryologic, etiologic and and sonographic features of situs inversus and related anomalies of the cardiac structures is presented.

D012857 Situs Inversus A congenital abnormality in which organs in the THORAX and the ABDOMEN are opposite to their normal positions (situs solitus) due to lateral transposition. Normally the STOMACH and SPLEEN are on the left, LIVER on the right, the three-lobed right lung is on the right, and the two-lobed left lung on the left. Situs inversus has a familial pattern and has been associated with a number of genes related to microtubule-associated proteins. Situs Inversus Viscerum,Inversus, Situs
D014188 Transposition of Great Vessels A congenital cardiovascular malformation in which the AORTA arises entirely from the RIGHT VENTRICLE, and the PULMONARY ARTERY arises from the LEFT VENTRICLE. Consequently, the pulmonary and the systemic circulations are parallel and not sequential, so that the venous return from the peripheral circulation is re-circulated by the right ventricle via aorta to the systemic circulation without being oxygenated in the lungs. This is a potentially lethal form of heart disease in newborns and infants.
