Ectopia Cordis is a rare congenital condition where the heart is located partially or totally outside the chest cavity. This occurs due to a failure in the development of the chest wall during early pregnancy. The condition can vary in severity, with some cases involving only a small portion of the heart exposed, while others may have the entire heart outside the body. The exact cause of Ectopia Cordis is not well understood, but it is often associated with other congenital anomalies. Diagnosis typically occurs through prenatal imaging, and treatment usually involves surgical intervention shortly after birth to reposition the heart and repair the chest wall.
