Iatrogenic Pericarditis and Cardiac Tamponade Following Distal Wire Perforation: A Serial Case Report

Distal wire perforation is an infrequent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) complication, which may progress to one of the fearful conditions, cardiac tamponade, and rarely to iatrogenic pericarditis. We described 2 cases of acute pericarditis and cardiac tamponade following distal guidewire c...

Sumario:Distal wire perforation is an infrequent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) complication, which may progress to one of the fearful conditions, cardiac tamponade, and rarely to iatrogenic pericarditis. We described 2 cases of acute pericarditis and cardiac tamponade following distal guidewire coronary artery perforation that was successfully managed with pericardiocentesis, anti-inflammatory agents, and meticulous follow-up. Although uncommon, acute traumatic pericarditis may also be considered as a complication after a complex PCI.
