Figure 1 A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm with right bundle branch block. The American Journal of Medicine 2013 126, 390-392DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2013.02.002) Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Transthoracic echocardiogram, parasternal long-axis view obtained at presentation demonstrated moderate-sized pericardial effusion (PE). The American Journal of Medicine 2013 126, 390-392DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2013.02.002) Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 3 Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. (A) Cine images using steady-state free precession sequence demonstrated large circumferential pericardial effusion (arrows) and thickened pericardium; (B) Late gadolinium enhancement imaging revealed diffuse enhancement of the pericardium (arrows) consistent with pericardial inflammation.

Figure 4 One month follow-up transthoracic echocardiogram, parasternal long-axis view, demonstrated complete resolution of pericardial effusion. The American Journal of Medicine 2013 126, 390-392DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2013.02.002) Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
