Introduction: This study aimed to explore changes in the venous return system in patients with Constrictive pericarditis (CP) after pericardial stripping and examine their value in predicting mortality.
Methods: An 8-year single-center retrospective cohort study including patients with CP after pericardial stripping surgery. Hemodynamic parameters were analyzed in 90 patients at 11 time points including before and after surgery and every 4 to 9 hours in the first 48 hours in the ICU (pre-operation, post-operation, 0h, t1, t2, t3, 24h, t4, t5, t6, 48h).
Results: Mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsf) were significantly higher in patients who died (non-survival group) than survivors ( = 0.016, respectively). Pmsf at 24h, APACHE II score, and SOFA score were evaluated as predictors of 28-day mortality. APACHE II combined with Pmsf at 24h had the highest prediction (AUC 0.807; 95% confidence interval, 0.671-0.941; = 0.003).
Discussion: In conclusion, Pmsf at 24h can be used as a valid indicator for prognostic assessment in patients with constrictive pericarditis admitted after pericardial stripping. Pmsf at 24h improves the performance of APACHE II scores in predicting 28-day mortality. Closely monitoring of Pmsf in patients after pericardial debridement may provide guidance for clinical management.

Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to analyze the clinical manifestations, diagnostic procedures, and outcomes of patients with pathologically confirmed constrictive pericarditis who presented with bilateral pleural effusions. We aim to outline a stepwise diagnostic approach that could assist clinicians in identifying CP in similar cases.
Methods: In this study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of 19 cases of pathologically confirmed constrictive pericarditis.

Purpose: This report describes a surgical approach involving a 5-layer closure performed for a patient with uveitic glaucoma who had an Ahmed Glaucoma Valve placed 12 years prior to presentation, then erosions which were revised 2 and 4 years ago. Additionally, the patient had a Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK) completed 4 years prior to presentation. The patient presented with a tube that was eroded and a DSEK that had failed.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-induced pericarditis and pericardial myocarditis are common entities; however, the development of pericardial effusion post-COVID-19 infection has only been reported in about 5% of cases. Rapid and acute progression to pericardial tamponade is uncommon, and progression to effusive constrictive pericarditis (ECP) and pericardial decompression syndrome (PDS) is an even rarer phenomenon. We describe these phenomena in this report to raise awareness and aid clinicians in the early diagnosis and management of these conditions.
