Intercostal thoracoscopic pericardiectomy in left lateral recumbency: A cadaveric study of feasibility, efficiency, and extent of pericardial resection. [PDF]

Vet Surg
Abstract Objective To describe the feasibility, efficiency, and extent of thoracoscopic pericardiectomy (TP) on a ventilated dog with an intercostal approach in lateral recumbency (ILR), in comparison with the traditional transdiaphragmatic paraxiphoid approach in dorsal recumbency (PDR). Study Design Randomized experimental study.

Lessons From a Complex Case of Calcific Constrictive Pericarditis: A Case Report. [PDF]

Case Rep Cardiol
Despite advances in imaging and diagnostics, calcific constrictive pericarditis (CCP) remains a rare and challenging entity, often masquerading as other cardiopulmonary conditions, leading to delayed diagnosis. We present a 70‐year‐old male with a history of heart failure, atrial fibrillation (AF), cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
