Abstract
Mesocardia is a condition in which the heart is longitudinally oriented along its long axis in the midline. Cardiac position refers to the anatomical position of the left ventricular apex in the thorax. The heart has three positions: dextrocardia or right-sided heart, levocardia or left-sided heart, mesocardia or midline heart. Mesocardia is extremely rare. It represents only 0.2% of cardiac anomalies. Mesocardia is usually associated with cardiac structural abnormalities, heterotaxy syndrome, chromosomal disorders and genetic syndromes. Occasionally, it is an isolated finding. We are presenting an interesting case report of severely symptomatic neonate afflicted with mesocardia, situs solitus, moderate sized atrial septal defect (ASD) and large ventricular septal defect (VSD).
