Spontaneous Disappearance of a Pericardial Cyst: Case Report and Literature Review.
Korean Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 2018 Februrary
Pericardial cysts are rare benign anomalies generally discovered as incidental findings on radiographic images. Rarely, pericardial cysts cause symptoms and may lead to complications. A 56-year-old woman presented to the emergency department for mild chest pain. A cardiovascular and respiratory examination revealed no abnormalities, while a chest X-ray and subsequent thoracic computed tomography (CT) showed a pericardial cyst.
