Dextrocardia with situs inversus

Dextrocardia with situs inversus

Dextrocardia with Situs Inversus is a rare heart condition characterized by abnormal positioning of the heart. In this condition, the tip of the heart (apex) is positioned on the right side of the chest. Additionally, the position of the heart chambers as well as the visceral organs such as the liver and spleen is reversed (situs inversus). However, most affected individuals can live a normal life without associated symptoms or disability.

Do individuals with Levocardia (situs inversus incompletus) have Transposition of the great arteries because the aorta and the pulmonary artery are connected to the opposite sides of the heart? Because in levocardia, the heart is in its normal position, but the blood vessles are transposed?
