Overview

Case report shows gradual resolution of hemorrhagic pericarditis in a patient with STEMI, highlighting management strategies.

Key Points

  • Gradual resolution of pericardial effusion occurred over 1.5 months after stopping anticoags and with conservative management.
  • Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging indicated hemorrhagic pericarditis while ruling out serious complications like cardiac rupture.
  • Emergency pericardiocentesis was avoided due to mild hemodynamic compromise despite significant pleural symptoms.
  • This case showcases a rare, self-limiting course in hemorrhagic pericarditis following intensive antithrombotic therapy.
