Haemopericardium has rarely been described in association with the use of a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant. Cardiac tamponade is life-threatening condition that usually requires urgent pericardiocentesis. Here, authors report case haemopericardium cardiac during dabigatran therapy for atrial fibrillation patient chronic coronary syndrome, treated effectively reversal agent idaruciz...

Hypothyroidism is a rare cause of pericardial effusion (PE). Pericardial effusion secondary to hypothyroidism remains a diagnostic challenge for clinicians because of its inconsistency between symptoms and amount of pericardial effusion. We report an atypical case that presented with ascites and was diagnosed to have cardiac tamponade secondary to primary hypothyroidism. Besides repeated perica...

We report a case of 62-year-old man with cardiac tamponade due to coronary artery injury after acupuncture into the substernum. After resuscitation of cardiac arrest, we performed emergent pericardiocentesis. Nevertheless, the cardiac arrest recurred, and the emergent operation on cardiopulmonary bypass was performed. We identified hemopericardium due to shredded acute marginal branch of right ...

With more and more extreme premature and very low-birth weight babies being resuscitated, umbilical central venous catheterisation is now being used more frequently in neonatal intensive care. One of the life-threatening complications is pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade; however, it is potentially reversible when it is caught in time. The authors present a case of cardiac tamponade fo...

Cardiac angiosarcoma is a rare primary cardiac tumor. Outcomes of minimally invasive resection are rarely reported in the literature
 A male patient aged 28 years old presented with right atrial mass compressing superior vena cava and associated pericardial effusion. Pericardiocentesis was done, preoperative workup revealed no distant metastasis. We planned excision through mini-thoracotom...
