Radiology, 1974
In a review of 48 cases, pediatric pericardial abnormalities were categorized by etiology: developmental, tumor-related, pericarditic, and postsurgical. In 34 (70%) a pericardial effusion was present at some point in the clinical course; the plain film in these cases revealed that straightening of the left heart border is an early sign of fluid within ...

, 2017 This chapter looks in detail at the anatomy and physiology of the pericardium and the implications of pericardial fluid on haemodynamics in the critically unwell patient. Specific focus is given to making the diagnosis of tamponade in the spontaneously ventilating patient, compared to patients who are intubated and mechanically ventilated.

Congenital defects of the pericardium: a review
European Heart Journal Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015 Pericardial defects are a rare disorder that can be characterized as acquired or congenital. Congenital defects can be further characterized by location and size of the defect, e.g. left- or right-sided and partial or complete absence of the pericardium.

The British Journal of Radiology, 1976Pericardial diseases may mimic specific types of cardiac chamber or great vessel enlargement. This paper presents a very rare entity, tuberculoma of the pericardium, which was mis-diagnosed radiographically as left atrial enlargement. A 41-year-old white male complained of “congestion” and heaviness in his upper chest.

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.

Pseudotumor of the Pericardium
Pediatric Cardiology, 1997A 2-year-old girl presented with signs and symptoms of cardiac tamponade preceded by upper respiratory tract infection. A two-dimensional echocardiogram was suggestive of an intrapericardiac tumor. Exploration of the pericardium revealed a large amount of dense amber-colored "coagulated material." Microscopic examination of the material and the ...
