Malignant Pericardial Effusion
Acta Cytologica, 2001To examine the frequency and diagnostic implications of malignant pericardial effusions.The clinical and histologic records of pericardial effusions diagnosed cytologically as malignant were reviewed. We investigated the relationship between malignancy and type of tumor, interval between diagnosis of the primary tumor and development of the pericardial

Malignant Pericardial Effusion
Cardiology, 2013Malignant pericardial effusion is a common and serious manifestation in malignancies. The origins of the malignant process include solid tumors or hematological malignancies, while primary neoplasms of the pericardium are less common. In the oncological patient, pericardial effusion may develop by several different mechanisms, namely by direct or ...

Pericardial effusions accompany a number of clinical conditions. The challenges facing the clinician when dealing with a pericardial effusion include assessing the urgency of draining the effusion, choosing the right approach for drainage, determining the mechanics of the effusion, and establishing a cause for the effusion.

Pericardial Window for Malignant Pericardial Effusion
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1980Seventeen patients with malignant pericardial effusion were treated by the creation of a pericardial window. This was done through a subxiphoid approach in 13 patients and through limited anterior thoracotomy or sternotomy incisions in 4. There were no deaths and no major complications attributable to the operation.

Pericardial effusion is classified according to its onset—acute, subacute, or chronic (>3 months)—distribution (circumferential or loculated), and haemodynamic impact. Concerning the size, we propose a simple semiquantitative echocardiographic assessment: mild (<10 mm), moderate (10–20 mm), and large (>20 mm), evaluated as the largest ...
