ABSTRACT
A 53-year-old man, who was known to have situs inversus totalis all of his life, had acute myocardial infarction complicated by partial rupture of the posterior papillary muscle causing mitral regurgitation and pulmonary edema. The patient underwent mitral valve replacement (Omnicarbon 27 mm) with concomitant aortocoronary saphenous vein bypass, and he is now doing well 9 months following the operation. To our knowledge, this is the first case of the successful mitral valve replacement and concomitant aortocoronary saphenous vein bypass on a patient with situs inversus totalis (mirror-image dextrocardia) in Japan.
