The use of percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy has not been reported well in children.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Objectives:<\/jats:title>The objective of this study was to describe the single centre experience of percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy in children.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Methods:<\/jats:title>This was a retrospective study to describe all the children aged <20 years undergoing percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy during an 18-year period (2001\u20132019). Patient characteristics, technical and ultimate procedural success, and repeat interventions were collected.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results:<\/jats:title>A total of 13 percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy\u2019s were performed in 11 children at the median age of 12 years (range 1.8\u201319). The etiologies of pericardial effusion were post-pericardiotomy syndrome (n = 4), restrictive cardiomyopathy (n = 1), autoimmune diseases (n = 3), malignancy (n = 2), and idiopathic (n = 1). Two patients received two percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy. The technical success of percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy was 100% with no acute adverse events (balloon rupture or local bleeding). Five (45%) required re-intervention and ultimately three required a surgical pericardial window 6 to 35 days after the percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy. As a result, ultimate procedural success rate was 73% (8\/11).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>Percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy was performed safely with high technical success in children. Percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy may be considered for recurrent and persistent pericardial effusion, before considering a surgical pericardial window.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1047951120003686","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,3]],"date-time":"2020-11-03T11:35:26Z","timestamp":1604403326000},"page":"212-215","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Single center experience of pediatric percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1115-0541","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christopher","family":"Herron","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas J.","family":"Forbes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daisuke","family":"Kobayashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.recesp.2012.09.018"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref12","first-page":"861","volume-title":"Textbook of Interventional Cardiology","author":"Jneid","year":"2017"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/joic.12221"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0304(199606)38:2<180::AID-CCD13>3.0.CO;2-N"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002460010291"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(93)90307-X"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4038\/sljch.v42i3.6022"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.21431"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.1810220403"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0304(199701)40:1<97::AID-CCD19>3.0.CO;2-R"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0735-1097(93)90710-I"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ccl.2017.07.010"},{"key":"S1047951120003686_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.carrev.2017.03.029"}],"container-title":["Cardiology in the Young"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S1047951120003686","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,18]],"date-time":"2021-02-18T11:48:01Z","timestamp":1613648881000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S1047951120003686\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,3]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,2]]}},"alternative-id":["S1047951120003686"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s1047951120003686","relation":{},"ISSN":["1047-9511","1467-1107"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1047-9511","type":"print"},{"value":"1467-1107","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,3]]},"assertion":[{"value":"\u00a9 The Author(s), 2020.
