Transthoracic cardia resection is a technically well-established surgical procedure. However, acute cardiac tamponade in the early postoperative period is extremely rare. The occurrence is life-threatening to the patient. It also poses a great clinical challenge for perioperative management. To date, few cases of pericardial tamponade have been reported in gastric cancer resection performed after neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy before surgery, followed by transthoracic surgery. A life-threatening complication, pericardial tamponade, occurred in the early postoperative period. The successful outcome was achieved in through multidisciplinary collaboration.

“…Metastatic tumors to the heart resulting in malignant pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade as the initial clinical sign are not seen frequently. [7][8][9] Kobayashi et al [10] reviewed the literature regarding 17 patients with cardiac tamponade presenting from GC. Our patient showed cardiac tamponade as the initial clinical sign of gastric adenocarcinoma.…”

Cardiac tamponade originating from a primary gastric cancer (GC) is a rare condition. Patients are generally asymptomatic until the disease is advanced. We report a rare patient with cardiac tamponade as the first manifestation of primary GC. A 46-year-old male was admitted with progressive dyspnea. Cardiac tamponade was diagnosed on two-dimensional ultrasonographic echocardiography. Pericardiocentesis yielded 1500 ml of bloody fluid. Pericardial cytologic examination was positive for malignant cells. The patient underwent abdominal computed tomography scan, which showed thickening of the gastric wall and several mesenteric lymph nodes. Endoscopic examination of the stomach disclosed malignant ulcer along the lesser curvature, and the biopsy showed diffuse type adenocarcinoma. Chemotherapy was initiated by the Oncology Department, and he had no pericardial effusion after six courses of systemic chemotherapy. In conclusion, this is a rare condition and difficult to diagnosis early. Thus, physicians should be aware of malignancy of the stomach when patients present with unexplained cardiac manifestations.

gradually aggravated over time. The skin extended and became sclerotic because of severe edema, liquid leaked from abdominal skin injuries, and the condition became similar to skin lymphorrhea in lymphedema. Neoplastic cardiac tamponade due to gastric cancer has an extremely low incidence and a poor prognosis. We encountered a patient in whom pericardial effusion caused subcutaneous edema in the trunk and lower limbs after percutaneous pericardial drainage was applied to treat carcinomatous pericarditis associated with gastric cancer.
