[Levocardia with spleen inversion, but without atrial transposition (author's transl)].
The case of a 14-year-old boy with levocardia is reported herein. By scintiphotography, a normal spleen was identified in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. As angiographic and electrocardiographic considerations rule out the transposition of the atria, the patient must be a very rare case of levocardia with an inverted spleen, which is not associated with transposition of the atria.
