Abstract

This report highlights the early and unusual detection of a pneumopericardium by echocardiography prior to potential development of cardiocirculatory compromise. It is important to consider pneumopericardium into the differential diagnosis when difficulties arise in the visualization of the heart by conventional echocardiography. Pneumopericardium is associated with a high mortality rate and may be effectively treated by immediate insertion of a pericardial catheter.

本报告强调了在潜在的心循环损害发生之前，超声心动图对心包积气的早期和异常检测。当常规超声心动图显示心脏出现困难时，在鉴别诊断中考虑心包积气是很重要的。心包积液死亡率高，可通过立即插入心包导管进行有效治疗。
