Abstract
Postinterventional pericardial leaks mostly occur intraprocedure or immediately postprocedure and call for an aggressive management right then. Also, once controlled for 24-48 hr, the leaks usually seal themselves spontaneously. We herein describe an unusual case of delayed and continued pericardial leak over 10 days as a result of micro perforation of RCA from the distal wire tip and which was successfully managed by intracoronary injection of sterile synthetic glue, which to the best of our knowledge is the first report of its kind.Entities:
