Postcardiotomy syndrome occurs two to three weeks (up to one year) after pericardiotomy, and is characterized by fever, pleuritis, pericarditis, or arthritis, together with petechiae on the skin and palate.[1]:827 The cause is believed to be an autoimmune response against damaged cardiac tissue. This is supported by excellent response to immunosuppressive (steroid) therapy.[2]
