[Right juxtaposition of the atria. Apropos of one case without associated trunco-conal abnormalities].
A child of 7 had coarctation of the aorta and an atrial septal defect. In the course of surgery to close the septal defect, she was found to have a right-sided juxtaposition of the appendages. This is a very rare abnormality, with no symptoms of its own, but usually associated with severe cardiac malformations especially of the truncus and conus. This case report is most unusual because of the right-sided disposition of the appendages and the absence of any serious associated cardiac lesion.
