Idiopathic pneumopericardium induced by forced coughing during coronary arteriography
Japanese Circulation Journal
|February 1, 1987
Abstract:
We report the induction of pneumopericardium by forced coughing during coronary arteriography in a 31-year-old male with anterior chest pain. The patient had no underlying disease and pneumopericardium could be reproduced by forced coughing. To our knowledge, there has been no report in the literature of pneumopericardium induced during coronary arteriography.
