Cardiac torsion after lobectomy with partial pericardectomy

SK Ohri, AA Siddiqui and ER Townsend
Thoracic Surgical Unit, Harefield Hospital, Middlesex, United Kingdom.

Cardiac herniation and torsion after intrapericardial pneumonectomy without closure of the pericardium is widely recognized. However, such a complication occurring after lobectomy has been rarely discussed in the literature. We describe a case of cardiac torsion of late onset that developed in a woman who had undergone left upper lobectomy as part of a resection for a malignant thymoma.
