dextrogyr doesn't appear in our generated misspelling index, which points to an orthography that plays by predictable German rules. Our confusable-pair dataset has no match for it, which usually means its spelling is distinct enough that readers don't reach for a similar-looking word instead.
No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct German form is dextrogyr, spelled D-E-X-T-R-O-G-Y-R.
