Pericardiectomy/Pericardial Stripping
Pericardiectomy may be considered when constrictive pericarditis leads to persistent signs of congestion, limited activity, and imaging and hemodynamic evidence suggests restricted ventricular filling, and when medication or drainage is difficult to control. The decision is usually determined by a s

What is Pericardiectomy/Pericardial Stripping?
Pericardiectomy aims to relieve the heart from the constriction caused by the thickened and calcified pericardium. A common approach involves exposing the heart through a chest incision under general anesthesia, with extracorporeal circulation and ultrasound monitoring as needed. The surgeon gradually separates and removes the diseased pericardium, protecting the coronary arteries and phrenic nerve, ensuring hemostasis, and placing drainage. Postoperative early monitoring of circulation, respiration, and drainage volume aims to improve ventricular filling and symptoms. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
