Graphical abstract, Highlights • IVSH is a rare complication after cardiac procedures. • It results from myocardial infarction, coronary intervention, and/or direct trauma. • It is associated with morbidity, mortality, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. • Echocardiography aids in diagnosis and follow-up of IVSH. • Spontaneous fistula between the septal hematoma and RV led to decompression and recovery.
