Abstract
Dextrocardia with situs inversus is a rare clinical condition. The diagnosis and treatment of acute coronary syndrome in such patients may pose challenges during presentation, interpretation of diagnostic findings, and at catheterization. We herein report a rare case in which the patient presented with 90% stenosis of the left anterior descending artery. He was treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention with a bioresorbable vascular scaffold. The procedural outcomes and follow-up events up to 3-years have been described.
