Total Robotic Pericardiectomy for Constrictive Pericarditis

, 2023
Constrictive pericarditis results from chronic fibrous thickening, and occasionally calcified adherence of the pericardium. The inelastic constriction of the pericardium impairs ventricular filling, resulting in increased filling pressures and decreased ...
