Abstract
Pneumopericardium is an unusual condition defined by the presence of gas into the pericardial sac. Gastric perforation into pericardium is a complication of gastric ulcer with high mortality. In this clinical case, we describe the condition of a male with a silent gastric ulcer, which penetrated into the pericardium, developing pneumopericardium and purulent pericarditis as a complication.
