Abstract
We describe a rare case of congenital sternal cleft. Multidetector computed tomography showed the counterclockwise rotation of the heart. Primary surgical correction was successfully performed using the Sabiston technique when the patient was 20days old. Although the circulatory and respiratory status was unstable in the immediate postoperative period, this abated, and the patient was discharged without complications on the 13th postoperative day. Postoperative multidetector computed tomography showed that the heart approached the normal position.
