Changes in Left Atrial Mechanics Following Pericardiectomy for Pericardial Constriction

, 2013
Background: Although impaired left ventricular (LV) filling in constrictive pericarditis (CP) is attributable to external constraints by a tethered pericardium, impaired left atrial (LA) function can further impair LV filling. Previous studies focused on
