Abstract:
CASE PRESENTATION:A 2-year-old boy was referred to the Ankara University School of Medicine Children's Hospital with a history of recurrent respiratory distress and cyanosis since birth. His medical history was significant for premature birth at 31 weeks via cesarean section, as an infant of a diabetic mother. There was no parental consanguinity. He was hospitalized in the neonatal ICU after birth because of respiratory distress. After receiving invasive mechanical ventilation for 4 days, noninvasive mechanical ventilation and oxygen therapy were given gradually. As a result of further investigations, he received a diagnosis of situs inversus totalis and pulmonary hypertension. He was discharged on postnatal day 53 without supplemental oxygen therapy or treatment for pulmonary hypertension. Up to the age of 2 years, the patient had a history of multiple admissions to hospital for respiratory distress, lower respiratory tract infection, and cyanosis as an inpatient and outpatient. After starting to walk, shortness of breath and coughing occurred with effort.
