Pneumopericardium as a Complication of Pericardiocentesis [PDF]
Pneumopericardium is a rare complication of pericardiocentesis, occurring either as a result of direct pleuro-pericardial communication or a leaky drainage system. Air-fluid level surrounding the heart shadow within the pericardium on a chest X-ray is an early observation at diagnosis. This clinical measurement and process is variable, depending on the

Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty Prior to Self‐Expanding TAVI: The BAVSE‐TAVI Registry
ABSTRACT Background Direct transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) approach is feasible and safe compared to predilatation‐TAVI. Certain clinical and computerized tomography (CT)‐based characteristics might indicate the need for balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) before TAVI, especially with self‐expanding valves.
