Chronic constrictive pericarditis (CCP) is a clinical syndrome caused by compression of the heart due to a thickened or rigid pericardium. In the affluent West, the majority of cases of CCP are neither tuberculous nor calcific. In an American cohort undergoing pericardectomy for the condition, only 27% had calcification and under 10% had TB [1].

The constricted ear may be described best as a pursestring closure of the ear. The deformity may include lidding of the upper pole with downward folding, protrusion of the concha, decreased vertical height, and low ear position relative to the face. The goals of surgical correction should include obtaining symmetry and correcting the intra-auricular ...

Often indistinguishable from restrictive cardiomyopathy and hepatic cirrohis, clinical acumen is essential in the recognition and diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis. A thorough medical history should rule out infectious disease exposure. A physical examination may include variable signs such as Kussmaul's sign, pulsus paradoxus, and pericardial ...

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1976
A patient with constrictive pericarditis following an open-heart operation without sepsis is discussed. In the absence of sepsis, it has been widely held that this complication does not develop following an open-heart procedure. The fatal outcome in this patient could have been avoided had such an association been known.

Constrictive pericarditis is a potentially treatable cause of diastolic heart failure that arises because a diseased, inelastic pericardium restricts ventricular diastolic expansion. Affected patients present with heart failure with predominant right-sided symptoms and signs.

This paper presents the several anatomic features of the anomaly, notes the information available on its frequency, describes criteria for its surgical correction, and analyzes the procedures advocated for its treatment in the light of these principles.

Constrictive pericarditis is a complex disorder characterized by abnormal thickening of the pericardium that leads to pathologic changes in cardiac hemodynamic data. The disorder can be suspected by history and physical findings. Data from echocardiography, CT, and MRI offer diagnostic information.

Abstract From a fiberscope, the tip of which was swung from left to right in the pharynx, cinefilm frames were obtained which showed the cross-sectional shape of pharyngeal constrictions in back vowels. This information was combined with the information offered by X-ray pictures of the same subject phonating the same vowels on a ...

Effusive–Constrictive Pericarditis
New England Journal of Medicine, 2004Effusive-constrictive pericarditis is an uncommon pericardial syndrome characterized by concomitant tamponade, caused by tense pericardial effusion, and constriction, caused by the visceral pericardium. We conducted a prospective study of its clinical evolution and management.From 1986 through 2001, all patients with effusive-constrictive pericarditis ...

Unusual diastolic murmurs in constrictive pericarditis and constrictive endocarditis
American Heart Journal, 1968Abstract Three patients with unusual diastolic murmurs are described. Two with constrictive pericarditis presented with the murmurs and hemodynamic findings of tricuspid stenosis attributed to localized constriction of the valves. The third presented with mitral, tricuspid, and aortic valve murmurs, chronic congestive cardiac failure, and a normal ...
