Abstract
A 59-year-old man with an inferolateral myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock was found to have extensive intrathoracic hemorrhage in communication with the left ventricle. His remote pericardiectomy precluded hemopericardium and tamponade, and permitted the establishment of an unusual diagnosis and subsequent closure of the site of myocardial perforation.Entities:
