Heart in the right side
Dextrocardia (Hear in right side): Usually the major portion of human heart lies in their left side. In some rare cases, it may be found in right side. However, it is not unnatural.On routine physical examination, a 35-year-old healthy gardener was found to have right-sided heart sounds. Radiography of the chest showed the cardiac apex pointing to the right. Both the aortic arch and the stomach bubble were located on the right side as well. Dextrocardia with situs inversus was diagnosed in this otherwise healthy man.
