OBJECTIVES Constrictive pericarditis is the result of a spectrum of primary cardiac and non-cardiac conditions. Few data exist on the preoperative risk specific to survival after pericardiectomy. This study was designed to compare the association of aetiology of constrictive pericarditis and other clinical variables, with long-term survival after total pericardiectomy. METHODS A total of 89 p...

Mixed lesion of Restrictive Cardiomyopathy and Constrictive Pericarditis is a rarely reported clinical entity which poses a diagnostic and therapeutic enigma to physicians. The management of both conditions differs markedly. Restrictive Cardiomyopathy is managed either conservatively or cardiac transplant may be offered. On the other hand, Constrictive Pericarditis can be surgically treated by ...

BACKGROUND Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity after balloon angioplasty by intraperitoneal injection of batimastat reduces late lumen loss by inhibition of constrictive remodeling. In the present study, we investigated whether the oral MMP inhibitor marimastat inhibits constrictive remodeling in favor of neutral or expansive remodeling. METHODS AND RESULTS In 26 pigs, ballo...

Constrictive bronchiolitis is a bronchiolar airway disease that surrounds the lumen with fibrotic concentric narrowing and obliteration. The mosaic pattern seen on the expiratory high-resolution chest CT scan is diagnostic in an individual with shortness of breath, early inspiratory crackles, and irreversible airflow obstruction. Swyer-James-MacLeod syndrome is no longer considered a congenital...

Chylous ascites is a clinical entity characterized by accumulation of milky fluid containing high amounts of triglycerides in the peritoneal cavity. The cause is usually lymphatic obstruction secondary to neoplastic processes. Constrictive pericarditis rarely causes cylous ascites through elevated venous pressure and lymphatic stasis. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report of constric...

BACKGROUND Constrictive pericarditis is a potentially reversible cause of heart failure that may be difficult to differentiate from restrictive myocardial disease and severe tricuspid regurgitation. Echocardiography provides an important opportunity to evaluate for constrictive pericarditis, and definite diagnostic criteria are needed. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with surgically confirmed co...

INTRODUCTION Constrictive pericarditis is an uncommon disease characterized by impaired diastolic filling of the ventricles, encased in a fibrotic pericardium resulting from an inflammatory process. Rheumatoid arthritis is a rare cause of constrictive pericarditis, usually due to a concomitant acute or chronic serositis. PRESENTATION OF CASE This paper presents a unique case of recurrent cons...

AIMS To characterize mitral medial and lateral annular velocities in constrictive pericarditis or restrictive cardiomyopathy compared with normal subjects. METHODS AND RESULTS Tissue Doppler imaging peak systolic velocity (S'), peak early diastolic annular velocity (e'), and timing difference between mitral early flow and early annular movement were measured in 14 patients with constrictive p...

A case is presented of the rare condition of constrictive epicarditis, which was treated successfully by removal of the epicardium. This appears to be the first account of constrictive epicarditis following proven Coxsackie viral infection.

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...
