Hemopericardium Due to Idiopathic Coronary Artery Rupture Treated with Saphenous Vein Patch Plasty

We report a case of an idiopathic coronary artery rupture in a 41-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital with cardiac tamponade. On opening the chest via a median sternotomy and establishing cardiopulmonary bypass the hemopericardium's cause could be identified as a perforation...

description We report a case of an idiopathic coronary artery rupture in a 41-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital with cardiac tamponade. On opening the chest via a median sternotomy and establishing cardiopulmonary bypass the hemopericardium's cause could be identified as a perforation of the right posterior descending coronary artery which was treated with a saphenous vein patch plasty. With idiopathic coronary artery rupture being a rare diagnosis, one should always consider it in a young patient presenting with cardiac tamponade.
