Idiopathic recurrent effusive pericardiopathy often poses a major clinical challenge. Its management is difficult and frequently involves repeat pericardiocentesis and/or elective surgery. Alternatives include catheterization techniques, with our attention focused on the cutting pericardiotome: the following is the case report of our first clinical case at an interval of seven years.

Keywords: Key words: idiopathic recurrent effusive pericardiopathy, pericardiotome, catheterization techniques.
