abstract={Congestive Hepatopathy (CH) is an important differential diagnosis when evaluating patients who present with right upper quadrant pain, hyperbilirubinemia, and jaundice. We describe a 54-year-old male with a chronic pericardial effusion who develops cholestatic jaundice and acute hepatic injury as a result of early cardiac tamponade. This case report demonstrates the challenges in diagnosing congestive hepatopathy and reviews the pathophysiology that leads to variable presentations of the condition.},
