Inflammatory Pericardial Pseudocyst Secondary to Atrial Myocardial Perforation: A Rare Complication following Transvenous Pacemaker Implantation

<div>(a) Chest X-ray immediately following pacemaker insertion procedure showing normal right atrial contour with no opacification in the right lung field. (b) Chest X-ray showing opacity in the right middle lobe on admission. (c) Computed tomography showed a thickened pericardium and pericardial effusion (blue arrow), pericardial cyst (blue stars), and the pacemaker electrode lining the epicardial surface of the right ventricle (yellow arrow).</div>
