Case report: CAR-T cell therapy-induced cardiac tamponade.

Unlabelled: CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy has recently been shown to improve the prognosis of refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, CAR-T cells may induce numerous adverse events, in particular cytokine release syndrome (CRS) which is frequently associated with cardiovascular manifestations. Among the latter, acute pericardial effusion represents less than 1% of cases and cardiac tamponade has only been reported once.
