The novel use of an advanced thrombectomy system to manage a complex pericardial effusion associated with kaposiform lymphangiomatosis
CARDIOLOGY IN THE YOUNG(2023)
Abstract
A 4-year-old boy presented to our institution with pancytopenia, consumptive coagulopathy, hepatosplenomegaly and recurrent complex pericardial effusion secondary to kaposiform lymphagiomatosis. Due to extensive loculation, conventional drainage was minimally effective. As an adjunct to medical therapy, the IndigoT aspiration system was used to remove thrombus within the pericardial space. Our patient had good medium-term results with complete resolution of his pericardial effusion at 4 months.
