Abstract
Heterotaxy syndrome is a congenital malformation in which the internal organs of the chest and abdominal cavity have an abnormal location. People suffering from this syndrome have multiple complex defects in the heart, blood vessels, spleen, liver, lungs and other organs. Heterotaxy is a rare pathology that requires a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis. This article demonstrates a rare case of heterotaxy observed in the pulmonology clinic of the Veltischev Institute.
