Case Study: Isolated Dextrocardia Discovered on Autopsy in A 20-Year-Old Female from Goa, India

In the state of Goa, India, a very interesting case of a 20-year-old female who was bought to Goa Medical college, Goa, to seek for medical attention for fever and breathlessness, who eventually succumbed to septicaemia (brain abscess), who was a known case of dextrocardia which indeed was confirmed on autopsy findings. Now, the question of whether dextrocardia is associated with the cause of death was to be answered. This interesting case exemplifies the complexities of diagnosing a case of rare congenital anomalies and underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation in young patients.

Abstract

In the state of Goa, India, a very interesting case of a 20-year-old female who was bought to Goa Medical college, Goa, to seek for medical attention for fever and breathlessness, who eventually succumbed to septicaemia (brain abscess), who was a known case of dextrocardia which indeed was confirmed on autopsy findings. Now, the question of whether dextrocardia is associated with the cause of death was to be answered. This interesting case exemplifies the complexities of diagnosing a case of rare congenital anomalies and underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation in young patients.
