title: [Pneumopericardium in neonatal resuscitation].
abstract: Pneumopericardium is a serious complication that may appear during artificial ventilation in the treatment of newborns with hyaline membrane disease. Its frequency may be greater than is generally supposed, since not all cases are diagnosed in vivo. Data from the literature and an account of the symptom picture and treatment of this form are followed by the presentation of two cases successfully resolved by means of pericardiocentesis.
