We report a case of acute cardiac tamponade without concurrent myocardial disease occurring in a thalassemia patient early after bone marrow transplantation. The pericardial effusion was preceded by an episode of junctional tachycardia. Repeated evaluation by echocardiography was done shortly after the patient developed the arrhythmia and permitted a detailed, timed observation of the event and description of the symptoms.
