Abstract

Our case report details the clinical course and management of a neonate with acute life-threatening respiratory distress presenting soon after birth. She needed intubation and ventilation. A pericardial cyst was diagnosed after a CT scan and 2D echo investigation. As a temporizing procedure the fluid was tapped and the child was electively operated. Postoperatively she made an uneventful and complete recovery. We have reviewed the literature for this rare and often asymptomatic lesion.

摘要

我们的病例报告详细介绍了一名新生儿出生后不久出现急性危及生命的呼吸窘迫的临床过程及处理情况。她需要插管和通气。经CT扫描和二维超声心动图检查后诊断为心包囊肿。作为一种临时措施，抽出了液体，并对患儿进行了择期手术。术后她顺利完全康复。我们查阅了关于这种罕见且通常无症状病变的文献。
