title: Coronary arteriography in the presence of dextrocardia and situs inversus.
abstract: Given the rarity of dextrocardia, it is not unexpected that there are only a few reports of coronary arteriography in such a setting. We describe a case of successful coronary arteriography in a patient with mirror image dextrocardia and situs inversus, and the technique used, and review the literature.
