title: [Postpericardiotomy syndrome; a rare complication of transcavitary cardiac pacing: apropos of a case].
abstract: The authors report a new case of the post-pericardiotomy syndrome occurring after implantation of a DDD pacemaker. This is a rare complication of the insertion of a screw atrial electrode, the iatrogenic potential of which has already been reported. The immediate outcome was favourable with anti-inflammatory therapy.
