Abstract
0.001, respectively). In addition, Mitral E velocity was found to be lower in the patient group with pericardial effusion (p=0.032). Conclusion: In malignancy patients who develop pericardial effusion, we recommend that diastolic parameters be checked and close clinical follow-up of the patients be performed before overt heart failure clinic develops. It should be kept in mind that the development of pericardial effusion in oncology patients receiving chemotherapy does not mean right ventricular failure.
