[A woman with an abnormality in the pericardial cavity]. / Een vrouw met een afwijking rondom het hart.

An 84-year-old woman was found dead at home. There were no suspicious circumstances. Non-contrast enhanced post mortem CT was performed to establish the cause of death. CT showed hyperdense fluid in the pericardial cavity consistent with hemopericardium secondary to left ventricular rupture caused by acute myocardial infarction.
