A rare case of persistent pericardial hematoma from blunt chest trauma caused constricted myocardium. Surgical removal of the hematoma

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Blunt chest trauma can lead to rare complications.
  • Persistent pericardial hematoma is an uncommon sequela.

Observation:

  • A large, partially organized hematoma in the right cardiophrenic angle was identified.
  • The hematoma was linked to an occupational accident 17 years prior.

Findings:

  • The pericardial hematoma caused constriction of the myocardium.
  • Complete removal of the hematoma's fibrous capsule was necessary for relief.

Implications:

  • This case highlights a delayed presentation of pericardial hematoma.
  • Surgical intervention is crucial for managing myocardial constriction due to organized hematomas.
