    Author: Elikowski W, Małek M, Wróblewski D, Kaszkowiak E, Kłos A.
    Journal: Kardiol Pol; 2009 Apr; 67(4):424-8; discussion 429. PubMed ID: 19492257.
    Abstract:
    A case of a 73-year-old woman with fibrinous pericardial effusion which developed four weeks following severe pulmonary embolism. Clinical and echocardiographic data as well as an inclination to self-limited course were suggestive of Dressler syndrome diagnosis. Although there were no data that oral vitamin K antagonist use was involved in presented pericardial syndrome, pericardial effusion size required its temporary substitution by heparin.
