Pericardial Metaplastic Ossification With Widespread Bone Formation: A Case Report. [PDF]

Case Rep Pathol
Pericardial disease can present clinically as acute pericarditis, pericardial effusion, cardiac tamponade, and constrictive pericarditis (CP). Pericardial calcification is present in less than 25% of all cases of CP, and patients with this finding are at risk for developing additional cardiac complications.

A Rare Case of Primary Purulent Pericarditis Caused by Streptococcus constellatus

Medicina, 2023
Background: Bacteria-caused acute pericarditis is a very rare entity. It is usually associated with an underlying infection or compromised immune system. Primary purulent pericarditis in a previously healthy individual is highly unexpected; therefore, it

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 ...

A Prediction Model for Acute Kidney Injury After Pericardiectomy: An Observational Study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
ObjectivesAcute kidney injury is a common complication after pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis, which predisposes patients to worse outcomes and high medical costs. We aimed to investigate potential risk factors and consequences and establish

Predictors of postoperative complication and prolonged intensive care unit stay after complete pericardiectomy in tuberculous constrictive pericarditis

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background The risk factors of postoperative outcomes after pericardiectomy in tuberculous constrictive pericarditis have still been unclear. This study aimed to investigate the predictors of postoperative complication and prolonged intensive care unit ...

Early operative outcome of pericardiectomy for symptomatic chronic tuberculous constrictive pericarditis

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2019
Background: Pericardiectomy procedure is commonly indicated for constrictive pericarditis (CP). One of the most important clue to diagnosis of CP is the signs and symptoms of right-sided heart failure that are not completely explained by presence of ...
