Chronic Constrictive Pericarditis in Association with End-Stage Renal Disease

Abstract: Pericardial involvement in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is manifested most commonly as acute uremic or dialysis pericarditis and infrequently as chronic constrictive pericarditis (CCP). We report a 27-year-old patient with a history of uncontrolled hypertension, end-stage-renal disease on hemodialysis, who presented with recurrent ascites, dyspnea, and hypotension. After diagnosis with CCP, a partial pericardiectomy was performed; however, the patient did not improve and a salvage total pericardiectomy soon … Show more

“…Tuberculosis which was once recognized as the most common cause of CP was declined. Other causes, although less common, were connective tissue disorders, fungal infections, malignancy, trauma, asbestosis, drug-induced causes and ESRD in hemodialysis [1,4]. In the present case, past CABG and ESRD on hemodialysis were probable causes of CP.…”
