Constrictive Pericarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 2017
Constrictive pericarditis is a potentially treatable cause of diastolic heart failure that arises because a diseased, inelastic pericardium restricts ventricular diastolic expansion. Affected patients present with heart failure with predominant right-sided symptoms and signs.

Constrictive Pericarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 1990
Constrictive pericarditis is a complex disorder characterized by abnormal thickening of the pericardium that leads to pathologic changes in cardiac hemodynamic data. The disorder can be suspected by history and physical findings. Data from echocardiography, CT, and MRI offer diagnostic information.

Pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis

The Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2020
Chronic constrictive pericarditis results from inflammation and fibrosis of the pericardium. This situation eventually leads to impairment of diastolic filling and right heart failure. Once the diagnosis is made, because the disease is basically irreversible, a pericardiectomy is the mandatory treatment.
