Cardiology Clinics, 1990
The most common background for recurrent pericarditis is that of acute nonspecific pericarditis. Relapsing pericarditis also may follow cardiac trauma, cardiac operations, myocardial infarction, and intrapericardial bleeding. The exact recurrence rate after initial attacks of idiopathic pericarditis is unknown but appears to be in the range of 15% to ...
