Acute Anterior Myocardial Infarction in a Patient With Dextrocardia and Situs Inversus

Situs inversus totalis is a rare disorder. In addition, acute coronary syndromes, especially ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions, are rarely detected in this group. We demonstrate the electrocardiographic features and discuss the interventional challenges of acute anterior myocardial infarct...
