Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann. 2002 Mar;10(1):53-4. doi: 10.1177/021849230201000113.

Abstract

Situs inversus is a rare condition and there are few reports of myocardial revascularization in such patients. A 56-year-old woman with situs inversus totalis and coronary artery disease underwent successful anastomosis of the right internal mammary artery to the anterior descending coronary artery, and a saphenous vein graft to the right coronary artery.
