the usage of implantable cardiac defibrillator (icd) since 1980s is becoming more popular these days. the rate of both, endocarditis and constrictive pericarditis are low but it still needs attention. we are reporting a rare case of icd endocarditis as a result of toe infection in a diabetic patient. this was followed by infectious pericarditis after device removal by open heart surgery and the...
Constrictive pericarditis is an uncommon post-inflammatory disorder characterized by a variably thickened, fibrotic, and frequently calcified, pericardium. Etiology of the constriction can occur for many reasons. Although foreign bodies are not the common cause of constrictive pericarditis, the long-term presence of foreign bodies, like bullets, is presumed to cause chronic constrictive pericar...
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to quantify the heterogeneous distribution of echodensities in the pericardial fluid of patients with tuberculous pericarditis using echocardiography and fractal analysis, and to determine whether there were differences in the fractal dimensions of effusive-constrictive and effusive non-constrictive disease. METHODS We used fractal geometry to quantify...
Effusive-constrictive pericarditis is a rare condition. In this report, we describe a case of effusive-constrictive pericarditis caused by seronegative rheumatoid arthritis which was successfully treated with surgical pericardiectomy.
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...
