Figure 1 Twelve-lead electrocardiogram on admission. The heterotopic heart is situated in the right hemithorax, hence the sinus beats from the heterotopic heart are clearly visible in the right precordial leads (V1-2), whereas in the left precordial leads (V5-6) ventricular fibrillation is more clearly seen because these overlie the native heart.
