A congenital anomaly characterised by displacement of the heart through a ventral body wall fissure involving the thoracic and cranial abdominal regions was recorded in a female Yorkshire-cross piglet. Dissection to assess the morphology of the developmental defect and a summary review of the literature on ectopia cordis were made. This case appears to be one of only three of ectopia cordis thoracoabdominalis reported in swine.
在一头雌性约克夏杂交仔猪中记录到一种先天性异常，其特征为心脏通过涉及胸部和颅腹部区域的腹侧体壁裂隙发生移位。进行了解剖以评估发育缺陷的形态，并对有关心脏异位的文献进行了简要综述。该病例似乎是猪中报道的仅有的三例胸腹型心脏异位病例之一。
