Anatomically corrected malposition (surgical repair).
Anatomically corrected malposition is a rare anomaly usually associated with other complex malformations. However, less complicated cases do occur and we report one such case treated surgically with success. Our experience underlines the importance of careful digital examination of the right ventricle from the atrium to determine the position of the septum, as the position of the left anterior descending coronary artery can be misleading.
