Overview

Pericarditis may be classified according to the composition of the inflammatory exudate into 6 subtypes: serous, purulent, fibrinous, caseous, hemorrhagic, and post-infarction or Dressler's syndrome. Pericarditis can also be classified into acute and chronic forms, depending on the timing of presentation and duration.

Classification

Pericarditis can be classified according to the composition of the inflammatory exudate or the composition of the fluid that accumulates around the heart. Types include:
