A patient developed chest pain and respiratory distress after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Echocardiogram revealed pericardial effusion and left ventricular thickening, suggesting post-operative cardiac complications.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Cardiac Surgery

Background:

  • A 57-year-old male presented with symptoms of non-Q-wave myocardial infarction.
  • He underwent four-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for significant coronary artery disease.

Observation:

  • The patient experienced sudden pleuritic chest pain and respiratory distress 17 days post-CABG.
  • An echocardiogram revealed a small pericardial effusion and moderate to severe left ventricular concentric thickening.

Findings:

  • Left ventricular ejection fraction was 0.60, slightly below normal.
  • Symptoms of chest pain persisted, appearing two days after the echocardiogram findings.

Implications:

  • This case highlights potential cardiac complications following CABG, including pericardial effusion and ventricular remodeling.
