Low voltage in 8 patients (33.33 % ), cardio-thorasic ratio (CTR) higher (han 0_5 in 10 patients (41. 66 %), and pericardial ef-fusion in 11 patients (45. 83 % ) was detected by ECG, chest X-ray, and ECO, respectively. Se-condary hypothyroidism with acute cardiac tam-ponade was found in one patient.
