Özet
Pericardiocentesis is the evacuation of fluid (which exceeds physiologic levels) from pericardial space. Although it's generally used as a life saving procedure in cardiac tamponade, it is also used for diagnostic purposes. Together with the advances in imaging modalities, pericardiocentesis techniques are diversed. In this report our aim is to give an idea about the history and indications of pericardiocentesis and thereafter briefly explain the tecniques of pericardiocentesis under the light of modern advances.
