==Overview==
Pericardial effusion can be classified into [[serous]], [[bleeding|bloody]] and [[chyle|chylous]] effusions based on the composition of the effusion fluid.  [[Infection]]s and [[inflammation]] usually cause serous effusion while bloody effusions are as a result of [[trauma]] to the heart.  Though [[iatrogenic]] causes and [[infection]]s are the common etiologies, pericardial disease may also be a feature of other disorders such as [[inflammatory bowel disease]].  [[Aortic dissection]] or [[free wall rupture]] should also be considered in patients with unstable hemodynamics and [[pericardial tamponade]].

Overview

Pericardial effusion can be classified into serous, bloody and chylous effusions based on the composition of the effusion fluid. Infections and inflammation usually cause serous effusion while bloody effusions are as a result of trauma to the heart. Though iatrogenic causes and infections are the common etiologies, pericardial disease may also be a feature of other disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease. Aortic dissection or free wall rupture should also be considered in patients with unstable hemodynamics and pericardial tamponade.

Causes
