Chylopericardium is a rare complication after cardiac transplantation. We report a case of a 69-year-old woman with persistent chylopericardium after a heart transplantation due to Chagas disease. Failure of conservative treatment led to dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography and percutaneous radiologic intervention of the lymphatic leakage and symptoms resolution.
Keywords: chylopericardium; heart transplant; lymphangiography; magnetic resonance.
