Abstract
Curative resection for large central bronchogenic tumors may require radical or intrapericardial pneumonectomy. Myocardial herniation through the pericardial defect is a rare early postoperative complication. Prevention of cardiac herniation and subsequent hemodynamic compromise is always necessary after intrapericardial pneumonectomy.Entities:
