Abstract
A patient is described who has 6 months of progressive dyspnea and peripheral edema for 4 years following implantation of an endovascular pacemaker, which was complicated by a large hemorrhagic pericardial effusion. Evaluation was consistent with constrictive pericarditis, which is an extremely unusual complication of pacemaker implantation.Entities:
