Distal coronary artery perforation with an angioplasty guidewire is a rare complication that may cause cardiac tamponade, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and even death. The use of platelet IIb/IIIa glycoprotein receptor inhibitors increases the risk of potentially fatal complications that are difficult to manage. We report a patient on treatment with abciximab who presented coronary perfora...
We report a rare case of fatal cardiac tamponade attributed to coronary sinus thrombosis. An 83-year-old man was admitted to the hospital complaining of general fatigue. Laboratory examination revealed marked increase of atypical lymphoblastic cells in peripheral blood. CHOP therapy was started under the diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The patient died, however, of sudden cardiac arr...
Cardiac Tamponade due to Hypertonic Contrast Medium in the Pericardial Sac Following Cineangiography
Relatively small amounts of contrast media reaching the pericardial sac can cause acute cardiac tamponade. The mechanism of this complication is on the basis of the hyperosmolarity of these angiographic media, resulting in the further accumulation of large amounts of fluid in the pericardial sac. Active bleeding due to possible perforation has probably not been a major factor in the cases repor...
Uremic pericarditis may complicate either acute or, more commonly, chronic renal failure. When dialysis is not employed, uremic pericarditis is usually a preterminal event and is characterized by a serofibrinous exudation of an amount inadequate to cause cardiac tamponade. Nevertheless, cardiac tamponade may uncommonly be observed in nondialyzed patients. Cardiac tamponade, which may be life-th...
BACKGROUND There are some reports in the literature, which suggest that cardiac tamponade drainage may transiently affect systolic function and also cause acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We did not find any reports of acute ventricular failure and ARDS secondary to mediastinal tumor resection without tamponade. CASE REPORT Here we report a 48-year-old woman presenting with massive...
Hydatid disease is a parasitic infestation caused by Echinococcus granulosus larvae. It endemic in subtropical and tropical regions, such as the Mediterranean, Middle East, South America, Africa Australia. The liver lungs are most often affected organes. Cardiac involvement very uncommon. We report case of 60-year-old patient with cardiac hydatid cyst that presented acute tamponade. subsequentl...
Pericardial disorders occurring in connective tissue diseases are not uncommon and may present as acute or chronic pericarditis with or without an effusion. In many instances, a diagnosis of pericardial involvement is not found until autopsy. Echocardiography and other currently employed radiographic techniques have enhanced the ability to make a diagnosis. Approximate frequencies of common con...
Essentially, acute pericardial syndromes include acute pericarditis and cardiac tamponade. This article focuses on the diagnosis and management of acute pericarditis. In Spain, most cases of acute pericarditis whose etiology is not apparent at initial clinical presentation are either idiopathic or viral pericarditis, which follow a benign or self-limiting clinical course (although tamponade may...
In any patient with a history of penetrating thoracic trauma, cardiac injury must be kept in mind. Here, we describe a 36 years-old female referred to this hospital with severe chest pain and hypotension. After primary evaluation and suggestion of AMI, streptokinase was started for the patient and because of deterioration of vital signs, cardiac surgery consultation was requested. After perf...
Background and purpose: Type A acute aortic dissection is a serious life-threatening condition that requires emergency surgery. Development of complications and operative management may be affected by various factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors and outcomes after surgical treatment of acute type A dissection. Materials and methods: A Cross-sectional descriptive st...
