Abstract
First described by the Swedish paediatrician, Björn Ivemark,
(1925-2005), IS is a rare congenital heterotaxic disorder
with lateralization anomalies [1]. It accounts for 1-
3% of all congenital heart defects, with an incidence of
1 in 10-20,000 live births. To date, about 200 cases
have been reported in the literature, mostly sporadic, but
familial occurrence has also been described, suggesting
autosomal recessive inheritance, with a male preponderance.
