Post-pericardiotomy syndrome (PPS) is a common inflammatory process following cardiac surgery, in which the pericardial space was opened. Pericardial effusion (PE) is a common manifestation in PPS; however, coronary artery dilation is not associated with PPS. Inflammatory vasculitis in children are known to cause coronary dilation, in conditions such as in Kawasaki Disease (KD). We report a patient with PPS and concomitant coronary dilation by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) following repair of her ventricular septal defect (VSD).
