Overview

Constrictive pericarditis is most commonly caused by conditions or events that cause inflammation to develop around the heart, including idiopathic, infectious (viral, bacterial, tuberculous, fungal, parasitic ) and purulent pericarditis. It can also occur post MI (Dressler syndrome), post surgical (CABG), post radiation therapy. Constrictive pericarditis can also be caused by or associated with connective tissue disease, pulmonary asbestosis, chronic renal failure, neoplasm (mesothelioma).

Causes

Common Causes
