Delayed presentation of pericardial rupture with luxation of the heart following blunt trauma: a case report.

B M Watkins1, D C Buckley, J L Peschiera.   

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To present an unusual case of delayed presentation of pericardial rupture with luxation of the heart 6 months after the initial injury.
DESIGN: Diagnosis, outcome, associated injuries, and treatment are discussed.
METHODS: A high index of suspicion is required to make the diagnosis; no single diagnostic test can be used as a screening tool.
CONCLUSION: Once recognized, treatment of pericardial rupture is relatively simple.
