Abstract :
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel pandemic that affects the cardiovascular system by various mechanisms. We report two cases of cardiac tamponade in patients with COVID-19, who underwent surgery and had different outcomes. Cardiac complications can occur in patients with COVID-19 that need special attention and may increase mortality and morbidity.
