PP-034 AORTIC INTRAMURAL HEMATOMA: A VARIANT OF AORTIC DISSECTION OR A DISTINCT ENTITY?

2013 
Discussion: Herein we present a cardiac tamponade case of a sewing needle which was ingested and passed into pericardium through esophagus and led tamponade by distruption of right atrium. As a result pericardial effusion and tamponade have a lot of reasons. It must be kept in mind that ingested metallic wires or needles can pass into pericardium through esophagus or diaphragm and lead cardiac tamponade.
