Pericardial resection
Pericardial resection should be performed as soon as possible after the diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis. Even if there is still some pus and fluid in the pericardial cavity at that time, the fiber board is not fully formed. As long as the constriction has impaired cardiac function, early surgery can relieve the pressure, which is longer than delaying until It is advisable to perform surgery only after the fiberboard is fully formed.
