Computed tomographic diagnosis of acute hemopericardium following myocardial infarction. 1986

M Hirsch, and M Katz, and M Gueron

A patient with acute hemopericardium following myocardial infarction is described. At surgery there was no evidence of myocardial rupture. The value of computed tomographic scanning in the diagnosis of fresh blood within the pericardial sac is discussed.
