An otherwise healthy 17-year-old adolescent boy presented with upper respiratory tract symptoms and was diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 infection. A haemorrhagic pericardial effusion was found in the transthoracic echocardiography. He was treated with pericardiocentesis, ibuprofen, and hydroxychloroquine. A large pericardial effusion may complicate COVID-19 in children and should be considered in acute decompensation.
一名原本健康的17岁青少年男性出现上呼吸道症状,被诊断为2019冠状病毒病感染。经胸超声心动图检查发现有出血性心包积液。他接受了心包穿刺术、布洛芬和羟氯喹治疗。大量心包积液可能使儿童COVID-19病情复杂化,在急性失代偿时应予以考虑。
