  • Title: Delayed myocardial laceration after intrapericardial pneumonectomy.
    Author: Papsin BC, Gorenstein LA, Goldberg M.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1993 Mar; 55(3):756-7. PubMed ID: 8452443.
    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.
