Abstract
We report the case of a 60-year-old female patient presenting with acute coronary syndrome on dextrocardia of the situs inversus type. Dextrocardia is a rare anomaly characterized by the location of the heart on the right side instead of the left. It is a malformation whose embryonic origin is not well understood. It is often discovered incidentally during additional tests performed for other health problems.
