Overview

There are no established causes for dextrocardia. It may be associated with a condition called situs inversus totalis, in which the whole body has its organs in an inverted fashion (not only the heart but also the spleen and the liver).

Causes

  • There are no established causes for dextrocardia.
  • Three are three conditions classified as dextrocardia that may have distinct causes:[1]
    • Mirror-image dextrocardia: most common, right-to-left orientation is reversed. Usually has some degree of abdominal situs inversus.
    • Dextroposition: normal heart is shifted to the right by extracardiac factor.
    • Dextroversion: least common, frequent accompanied by other cardiac developmental abnormalities. Caused by a disorder in the development of the cono-truncal region of the heart.
      • Generally caused by a rotation of the ventricular part of the heart to the right with the atria remaining in normal position.
