  • Title: Pericardial disease--differential diagnosis and management.
    Author: Hancock EW.
    Journal: Hosp Pract (Off Ed); 1983 Apr; 18(4):101-12. PubMed ID: 6404768.
    Abstract:
    The multiple manifestations of pericardial disease pose a diagnostic as well as therapeutic challenge. Differentiation from myocardial infarction, determination of etiology, and coping with complications are primary considerations. Management may involve strategies ranging from supportive treatment for self-limited acute pericarditis to complex medical and surgical maneuvers.
