MRI.6,7 Excision of the atrial appendage and surgical pericardioplasty (Dacron, Gore-tex, or bovine pericardium) is indicated for imminent strangulation.8. Acute pericarditis. Acute pericarditis is either dry, fibrinous or effusive, in-.
1 Apr 2004 Acute pericarditis is dry, fibrinous or effusive, independent from its aetiology. The diagnostic algorithm can be derived from Table 2.8–18 A prodrome of fever, malaise, and myalgia is common, but elderly patients may not be febrile. Major symptoms are retrosternal or left precordialchest pain (radiates to the
composed of two thin layers, a serous visceral and a fibrous parietal layer, typically containing 50 mL or less of serous fluid.1,2 By definition, a pericardial effusion occurs when the volume of fluid exceeds this normal amount. The causes are numerous as any process that inflames, injures, or reduces lymphatic drainage of
The pericardial sac has two layers, a serous visceral layer (also known as epicardium when it comes into contact with the myocardium) and a fibrous parietal layer. Pericardial diseases are relatively common in clinical practice and new data have been published since the publication of the 2004 ESC Guidelines on
Normal pericardium consists of an outer sac or fibrous pericardium and an inner double-layered sac called the serous pericardium. . The 2004 ESC guidelines recommended the use of an NSAID for the treatment of idiopathic or viral acute pericarditis, with the goal of therapy being the relief of pain and the resolution of
1 Apr 2014 Healthy pericardium consists of the inner serous visceral layer and the outer fibrous parietal layer that envelop the heart. About 15 to 50 mL of fluid, an ultrafiltrate of plasma, separates these layers. Acute pericarditis can result from a systemic disease or a process isolated to the pericardium (Table 2).2,7,8
Pericarditis is inflammation of the pericardium Symptoms typically include sudden onset of sharp chest pain. The pain may also be felt in the shoulders, neck, or back. It is typically better sitting up and worse with lying down or breathing deep. Other symptoms may include fever, weakness, palpitations, and shortness of

Treatment of pericardial disease is also problematic in that there is a paucity of randomized lished guidelines for the diagnosis and management of Acute Pericarditis. Acute fibrinous pericarditis is characterized by typical chest pain, a pathognomonic pericardial friction rub, and specific electrocardiographic changes.
Acute pericarditis is an inflammatory process involving the pericardium that results in a clinical syndrome characterized by chest pain, pericardial This is felt to be caused by fibrinous deposits in the inflamed pericardial space (Figure 2) the timing of which can be mono-, bi-, or triphasic
