| Popis: | Isolated pericardial rupture is probably a frequently overlooked injury. We present a case of delayed heart herniation through a left pericardial tear resulting from blunt trauma. Diagnosis was achieved by video-assisted thoracoscopy, which was also helpful in the selection of the appropriate site and extent for the thoracotomy incision. |
