Cardiology Clinics, 1990
Noninvasive imaging has profoundly altered our ability to diagnose and manage patients with suspected pericardial disease. Although pericardial involvement may first become apparent on a chest radiography, echocardiography (M-mode, 2-D, and Doppler) is the procedure of choice for identifying and characterizing pericardial disease. CT and MRI frequently

American Heart Journal, 1950
Abstract Cystic conditions affecting the pericadium have been discussed in general. The literature has been carefully reviewed, and the differential points and diagnostic procedures to be evaluated in a case presenting a lesion of this type are illustrated in a reported case. Possible modes of genesis have been summarized.

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2001
Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are modalities well suited for imaging of the pericardium and pericardial disease. Both offer excellent resolution with a wide field of view. Both have advantages and disadvantages when compared with each other and with echocardiography.

A 73-year old woman was admitted from another hospital for suspected ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). She had chest pain and dyspnoea. She had a history of treated hypertension and of gastro-oesophageal refl ux disease (GORD) with Barrett’s metaplasia which was diagnosed 3 months previously. ECG showed ST-segment elevation in leads I,

Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2011
This article describes the normal anatomy of the heart and pericardium. Included is a detailed description of the pericardium, mediastinal nerves, cardiac chambers, valves, coronary arteries and veins, and the conduction tissues. As cardiac and thoracic surgery continue to get more specialized and the procedures become less invasive, it is essential ...

The study of pericardial diseases is generally carried out by means of echocardiography, which is still the technique of choice in detecting effusion and diagnosing temponade. Widely available, easy to operate, and inexpensive, ultrasound are every useful in these situations.

A Congenital Defect of the Pericardium
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1999Ten patients with congenital defects of the pericardium were treated in Departments of Cardiac Surgery, Silesian School of Medicine in Zabrze and Katowice between 1989 and 1998. There were eight children and two adults, eight males and two females. In each case the pericardial defect was discovered intraoperatively during surgery for congenital heart ...

Abstract Under normal conditions the pericardium, with its fluid, lubricates the moving surfaces of the heart, holds the heart in a fixed geometric position and isolates the heart from other structures in the thorax, thus preventing adhesions and spread of infection.

Traumatic rupture of the pericardium
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1971Abstract Isolated pericardial rupture due to nonpenetrating chest injury was diagnosed in a 21 year old man with multiple traffic injuries. Radiologic examination showed displacement of the heart to the left and therefore gave rise to a suspicion of pericardial rupture.

Abstract 1. 1. Pericardial-celomic cyst represents a space-occupying mediastinal mass. 2. 2. It is of importance only in the differential diagnosis. 3. 3. In cases of doubt excisional therapy is indicated.
