Congenital Pericardial Defect Incidentally Discovered During Lung Cancer Surgery:Report of Two Cases

Congenital pericardial defect is a rare congenital condition. It is often asymptomatic and discovered incidentally, frequently during autopsies, medical investigations, or surgery. Nevertheless, there are few reported cases of its discovery during lung cancer surgery. Lung cancer surgery can lead to changes in lung volume, potentially resulting in postoperative complications. Hence, it is crucial to consider potential complications and exercise caution when determining the course of action, taking into account the extent of the pericardial defect.
