Dextrocardia means right-sided position of the heart in the chest irrespective of the cause. For the absolute diagnosis of the dextrocardia, the segmental analysis of heart is necessary. Once the segmental analysis of the dextrocardia is made, it is often relatively easy to identify the presence of any associated defects based on conventional methods including physical examination, EKG, echocardiography, and angiocardiography. Two cases of dextrocardia with congenital heart disease were treated surgically.A eleven - months old boy was operated under diagnosis of ASD, VSD, and bilateral SVC with mirror - image dextrocardia {I,L,I} by primary closure of ASD and VSD.A twenty-four months old girl was operated under diagnosis of ASD, VSD, and PS with corrected TGA {I,D,D} by primary closure of ASD, VSD and dilatation of pulmonary stenosis. Both of them were discharged healthily after operation.

A 4-year and 11-month old child was diagnosed as having dextrocardia, pulmonary atresia, atrioventricular discordance, aorta from right ventricle, PDA, the interruption of right pulmonary artery and postoperative state of Blalock-Taussing shunt on right pulmonary artery. Anatomical repair so called \"double switch operation\" was performed; the Ratelli procedure on ventricular level and the Mustard procedure on atrial level. We report the successful anatomical repair of congenitally Physiologically Corrected Transposition even with Dextrocardia, Situs Inversus and the interruption of Right Pulmonary Artery.ry Artery.

A Complete transposition of the great arteries combined with V.S.D, A.S.D, dextrocardia, and P.S is a rare congenital anomaly. The patient was a 10 year-old female whose complaints were frequent URI, exertional dyspnea, and cyanosis at rest since birth. Cheat X-ray films showed Dextrocardia ; situs inversus, moderate cardiomegaly, and Characteristic egg-shape heart shadow. E.K.G, Echocardiography, Cardiac Catheterization, and Angio-Cardiography were performed. Open heart Surgery was done under diagnosis of d-TGA, Dextrocardia, V.S.D, A.S.D, and P.S. At the time of Operation, Dextroeardia, T.G.A, Secndum type A.S.D, A.S.D, and P.S. At the time of Operation, Dextroeardia, T.G.A, Secndum type A.S.D. ($2.0{\times}2.0cm$. in diameter), V.S.D. type II ($1.5cm{\times}1.5cm$ in diameter), and pulmonary valvular stenosis were noted. Mustard operation using pericardial Baffle in the atrium for T.G.A. was perforsned. Teflon patch graft for closure of V.S.D. through tricuspid orifice and pulmonary Valvulotomy through pulmonary arteriotomy were performed. The post-op, low cardiac output Syndrome and dysrhythmicawere developed till Postoperative day #7, so that was controlled by inotropic and antiarrhythmic agents. After that, patient's conditions were Uneventful.

Poland 증후군은 일측 대흉근의 부재나 저형성과 다양한 동측 손기형을 특징으로 한다. Mobius 증후군은 완전 혹은 불완전의 안면마비를 특징으로 하는 선천적 신경학적 이상을 말한다. 이들의 병인은 명확히 밝혀지지 않았지만, 이환된 측의 혈류가 감소됨으로서 발생된다 여겨지고 있다. 2.670 g 남자아이가 38주 3일에 왼쪽 안면마비와 우심증이 동반된 왼쪽 흉벽 결손에 2번째, 3번째 손가락 합지증을 가지고 태어났다. Poland-Mobius 증후군은 드물며, 세계적으로 우심증과 관련된 증례는 단지 2례 밖에 없었다. 이에 우리는 우심증이 동반된 Poland-Mobius 증후군의 국내 첫 증례를 보고하는 바이다.

Within the group of congenital cardiac anomalies manifesting dextrocardia and double-outlet right ventricle, ventricular non-inversion [S.D.L] is extremely rare. Recently, a 5 year-old boy underwent a successful surgical correction of dextrocardia associated with double-outlet right ventricle, ventricular non-inversion [S.D], ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and patent foramen ovale. The operation consisted of construction of an internal baffle connecting the left ventricle to the aorta through the large ventricular septal defect [subaortic]. The pulmonary stenosis was managed by infundibulectomy and patch enlargement of the right ventricular wall. The patient`s postoperative recovery has been uneventful, and 2 months after the operation, he is doing well.

We have recently operated 6 year-old male patient who had double outlet right ventricle with dextrocardia, situs inversus, pulmonary stenosis and 2 ventricular septal defects. Rastelli operation was performed by internal baffling with Cooley woven Dacron and tunnel grafting with Hancock valved conduit between the right ventricle and the main pulmonary artery.His postoperative course was uneventful. He was discharged in good conditions on P.O.D. #33.

Two cases of situs inversus totalis with isolated congenital heart disease were treated at department of cardiothoracic surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital. Sixteen months old girl was operated under diagnosis of PDA with mirro-image dextrocardia by triple ligation. Fifteen months old girl was managed under diagnosis of VSD with mirro-image dextrocardia by simple closure of VSD with extracorporeal circulation. The former had smooth postoperative course, but the latter was died of asphyxia due to vomitus on postoperative second day

Partial anomalous pulmonary drainage is frequently accompanied by an atrial septal defect. The anomaly is entirely compatible with life and the clinical findings are dependent primarily on the proportion of the pulmonary venous return to the right atrium. The anomaly is frequently missed even with complete diagnostic study. In this report we are presenting a case of anomalous pulmonary venous drainage combined with atrial septal defect and dextrocardia and the treatment of this condition.

Corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.] is a very rare congenital cardiac malformation in which the atria and ventricles are in discordant relation, as are the ventricles and great arteries, but the aorta is to the right of the pulmonary artery. A 13 year old male patient who complained cyanosis and dyspnea on exertion for 8 years, was diagnosed as congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.], large ventricular septal defect, patent foramen ovale and pulmonary stenosis. He was operated on Nov. 22 1978. The ventricular septal defect was closed with Teflon felt and the pulmonary hypoplasia was corrected with Rastelli operation successfully. On 34th postoperative days, complete heart block was occurred and permanent epicardial pacemaker was implanted with good result.

A case of successful surgical correction of double-outlet right ventricle with situs inversus, dextrocardia, subaortic ventricular septal defect, and pulmonic stenosis is described. The great vessels were normally related but in mirror-image arrangement. Another coronary artery anomaly, single origin of coronary artery and a large anomalous coronary artery coursed across the right ventricular outflow tract, was accompanied. Intracardiac repair with a Dacron tunnel conduit and extracardiac jumping graft with a valved conduit gave an excellent result.
