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 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.

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.

Pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis
The Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2020Chronic constrictive pericarditis results from inflammation and fibrosis of the pericardium. This situation eventually leads to impairment of diastolic filling and right heart failure. Once the diagnosis is made, because the disease is basically irreversible, a pericardiectomy is the mandatory treatment.

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 ...

Angiocardiography in Constrictive Pericarditis
Chest, 1974The conventional x-ray film examinations and the angiocardiographic features of 13 cases of constrictive pericarditis are analyzed and compared with those in five cases of pericardial effusion and four cases of congestive cardiomyopathy. The conventional x-ray film examination can contribute to the diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis if the ...

Effusive-constrictive pericarditis
Heart Failure Reviews, 2012Effusive-constrictive pericarditis (ECP) is an increasingly recognized clinical syndrome. It has been best characterized in patients with tamponade who continue to have elevated intracardiac pressure after the removal of pericardial fluid. The disorder is due to pericardial inflammation causing constriction in conjunction with the presence of ...

Constrictive Pericarditis in Children
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1975We observed five cases of constrictive pericarditis (CP) during a 12-year period, and studied the clinical findings, usual causes, and hemodynamic findings. There are two variants of CP: a chronic form, which is usually of unknown cause, and a rapidly developing form, which follows an attack of effusive pericarditis.

Chronic constrictive pericarditis∗
The American Journal of Cardiology, 19611. 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.
