PCI - Double Vessel Stenting in a case of Situs Inversus Dextrocardia
Abstract
Diagnosing myocardial Infarction in Situs
Inversus Dextrocardia patient and doing
Coronary Angiogram (CAG) and Percutaneous
coronary intervention (PCI)
poses considerable Challenges. Recognizing
mirror image cardio visceral relations
is extremely important. Here we report
a 50-year-male patient treated at a
private hospital for acute ST Elevation
myocardial infarction and referred to our
centre for Coronary Angiogram. CAG revealed
significant Two Vessel disease.
Successful PCI to Left circumflex (LCX)
and Left Anterior Descending artery
(LAD) was done
