Description

Hemorrhagic cardiac tamponade (HCT) is characterized by rapid accumulation of blood in the pericardium causing hemodynamic collapse. We report a case of HCT due to Apixaban use in a patient with renal cell carcinoma, supplemented with a systematic review of pericardial tamponade associated with the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
