  • Title: Echocardiographic identification of intrapericardial fibrous strands in acute pericarditis with pericardial effusion.
    Author: Chiaramida SA, Goldman MA, Zema MJ, Pizzarello RA, Goldberg HM.
    Journal: Chest; 1980 Jan; 77(1):85-8. PubMed ID: 7351154.
    Abstract:
    In three cases of acute pericarditis with pericardial effusion, the presence of fibrous strands within the fluid-filled pericardial cavity was demonstrated by M-mode and cross-sectional echocardiography. Pericardiocentesis proved difficult in all three. No patient progressed to constrictive pericarditis.
