Cardiac perforation with tamponade is an infrequent occurrence during an electrophysiologic procedure. The customary approach to management includes volume resuscitation followed by pericardiocentesis. Such a procedure, however, is not without its own risk, especially when performed emergently. We hypothesized that some patients experiencing this type of complication can be managed successfully in a conservative fashion, without the need for an additional invasive procedure.
