Resumen

La hernia yatrógena de corazón por neumonectomía practicada por vía intrapericárdica puede evitarse cerrando sistemáticamente la incisión de la serosa. Cuando un paciente al que se le ha practicado esta intervención presenta un cuadro de shock, se debe pensar en la posibilidad de una herniación de corazón y practicar una radiografía del tórax, y si se confirma intervenir sin demora.

Summary

Latrogenic hernia of the heart after pneumonectomy by the intrapericardial route can be avoided by closing the incision of the serous membrane systematically. When a patient who has undergone this intervention presents shock, one must think in the possibility of a hernia of the heart and make a radiograph of the thorax. If the hernia is confirmed, the patient should be intervened without delay.
