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.

Effusive–Constrictive Pericarditis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2004
Effusive-constrictive pericarditis is an uncommon pericardial syndrome characterized by concomitant tamponade, caused by tense pericardial effusion, and constriction, caused by the visceral pericardium. We conducted a prospective study of its clinical evolution and management.From 1986 through 2001, all patients with effusive-constrictive pericarditis ...

Angiocardiography in Constrictive Pericarditis

Chest, 1974
The conventional x-ray film examinations and the angiocardiographic features of 13 cases of constrictive pericarditis are analyzed and compared with those in five cases of pericardial effusion and four cases of congestive cardiomyopathy. The conventional x-ray film examination can contribute to the diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis if the ...

It has been best characterized in patients with tamponade who continue to have elevated intracardiac pressure after the removal of pericardial fluid. The disorder is due to pericardial inflammation causing constriction in conjunction with the presence of ...

Acute constrictive pericarditis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1961
Summary A case of acute constrictive pericarditis secondary to meningococcal infection is presented. Fatal concretio cordis developed with unprecedented speed 21 days after the onset of suppurative pericarditis. The literature is reviewed pertaining to the relationship of suppurative pericarditis and subsequent concretio cordis.
