Abstract
We report the case of a 60-year-old woman who underwent mitral valve replacement and tricuspid valve repair. Following surgery she developed rapid onset of ascitis and secondary abdominal compartmental syndrome with low cardiac output and oliguria. Following drainage of the ascitis, the abdominal pressure dropped with a spectacular improvement of both the cardiac ant the urine output.
