The Constricted Heart

Postgraduate Medicine, 2008
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 ...

Constrictive Pericarditis

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

Cardiology Clinics, 2017
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.

The Constricted Ear

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1978
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.

Pharyngeal Constrictions

Phonetica, 1978
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 ...

Constrictive Pericarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 1990
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.

Effusive–Constrictive Pericarditis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2004
Effusive-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, 1968
Abstract 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 ...

Permeability Description by Characteristic Length, Tortuosity, Constriction and Porosity

Transport in Porous Media, 2014
In this article we investigate the permeability of a porous medium as given in Darcy’s law. The permeability is described by an effective hydraulic pore radius in the porous medium, the fluctuation in local hydraulic pore radii, the length of streamlines,

Chronic constrictive pericarditis∗

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1961
1. 1. A series of forty cases of constrictive pericarditis is analyzed and the subject reviewed in the light of this experience. 2. 2. One-quarter of the cases were still in the active stage of disease. The chief differences between these patients and those with chronic inactive pericarditis are emphasized. 3. 3.
