Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy in a Patient With Transposition of Great Arteries Post-Atrial Switch Surgery.

We report a case of a 33-year-old woman who underwent stress and rest myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) to exclude coronary artery disease. MPS images showed an apparent dextrocardia with a right-sided septal wall uptake. The electrocardiograph showed a right axis deviation with dominant R waves at leads aVR and V1. Upon retrieval of the patient's medical records, she had an underlying transposition of great arteries and underwent a Senning atrial switch surgery. Hence, the MPS images demonstrated a prominent right ventricular wall due to its function as the "systemic" ventricle with minimal uptake in the "pulmonary" left ventricle.
