Pyopericardium manifesting as cardiac tamponade: A rare presentation of a common disease
Research in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Pyopericardium is a rare fatal pericardial disease. It manifesting as cardiac tamponade is rare and because of tuberculosis is extremely rare. We present the case of a 20-year-old female who presented with worsening dyspnea, low-grade fever, and weight ...

A contemporary look at pericardiocentesis [PDF]
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019 Percutaneous drainage is the default strategy for evacuating a pericardial effusion. A pericardiocentesis can be necessary or required in a wide variety of clinical settings ranging from urgent tamponade to relieve in iatrogenic hemorrhagic effusions in the electrophysiology or catheterization room, to planned diagnostic procedures in patients with ...

Pericardiocentesis Complicated by Pneumopericardium
JACC: Case Reports, 2019 This report presents the case of pneumopericardium with trapped air in the pericardial sac occurring after a pericardiocentesis, probably caused by air leakage secondary to a defect in the drainage system and/or accidental removal of the pericardial tube.
