for the evaluation of shortness of breath. Her previous medical record was unremarkable. ECG revealed negative T waves in the inferior and precordial derivations (Fig. 1). Chest X-ray showed dense calcification around the heart, compatible with a calcified pericardium (Fig. 2a, b). Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram revealed severe thickening and calcification of the pericardium, lead...

A 69-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital for further cardiac evaluation with symptoms of dyspnea (New York Heart Association class III) and peripheral edema. Her history revealed artificial mitral valve replacement due to mitral stenosis 8 years earlier, severe chronic pulmonary hypertension, and severe tricuspid valve incompetence. Electrocardiogram showed normofrequent atrial...
متن کاملRing-shaped calcific constrictive pericarditis strangling the heart: a case report
Constrictive pericarditis is caused by fibrosis and calcification of the pericardium, processes that inhibit diastolic filling of the heart. For the diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis, a combined approach is used to evaluate the morphologic pericardial abnormalities in conjunction with assessment of the functional and hemodynamic changes. We report novel findings of chest computed tomograph...

متن کاملConstrictive pericarditis in the modern era: a diagnostic dilemma.
Constrictive pericarditis is caused by fibrosis and calcification of the pericardium, processes that inhibit diastolic filling of the heart. This condition has posed a diagnostic dilemma since it was first recognised clinically. Although many diagnostic approaches have become available subsequently, the diagnostic challenge remains. Because surgical intervention can provide complete relief of s...
