ABSTRACT
A-75-year-old man had refractory late cardiac tamponade after an off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. He was initially treated by pericardiocentesis with oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, but the treatment failed. Pericardial fenestration was conducted twice for refractory pericardial effusion during his hospitalization. He presented again with recurrence of cardiac tamponade 2 months after the last pericardial fenestration. Therefore, a pleuroperitoneal shunt system was implanted. He recovered well and was discharged without reaccumulation of pericardial effusion.
