Echocardiography plays a key role in the assessment and diagnosis. Methods: Twelve patients who underwent pericardiectomy for CCP in last 18 months of the study period were subjected to clinical and New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class assessment along with comprehensive echocardiographic evaluation. The data were compared with their preprocedural status. Results: Significant reduction was noted in the incidence of inferior vena cava (IVC) congestion(P &lt; 0.001) and mean left atrial (LA) size from 43.75 \u00b1 4.43 mm to 31.58 \u00b1 3.03 mm (P &lt; 0.001), post pericardiectomy.Respiratory variation of 34.17 \u00b1 8.76 % in the mitral E velocity was significantly reduced to 17 \u00b1 3.69 % (P &lt; 0.001) after surgery. Similarly, respiratory variation in tricuspid E velocities showed significant reduction from 62.17 \u00b1 13.16 % to 32.58 \u00b1 4.7 % (P &lt; 0.001).Prior to pericardiectomy, medial e\u2019 and lateral e\u2019 mitral annular velocities was 15.5\u00b11.24 cm\/sec and13.08 \u00b1 1.08 cm\/sec, respectively. Following surgery, the medial e\u2019 and lateral e\u2019 was 12.5\u00b11.17 cm\/sec(P = 0.001) and 15.42\u00b11.83 (P = 0.004), respectively. Conclusion: Echocardiography provides useful insight in pericardial constriction hemodynamics and worthwhile effects of pericardiectomy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.34172\/jcvtr.2021.23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,7]],"date-time":"2021-07-07T05:48:30Z","timestamp":1625636910000},"page":"169-173","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Short term clinical and echocardiography outcomes of pericardiectomy in constrictive pericarditis"],"prefix":"10.34172","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0693-5862","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Madhur","family":"Kumar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery Safdarjung Hospital & Vardhman Mahavir Medical College, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0263-2987","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ajit","family":"Padhy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery Safdarjung Hospital & Vardhman Mahavir Medical College, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ridhika","family":"Munjal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery Safdarjung Hospital & Vardhman Mahavir Medical College, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anubhav","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery Safdarjung Hospital & Vardhman Mahavir Medical College, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"20123","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0002-8703(99)70105-5"},{"key":"R2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/circulationaha.105.543066"},{"key":"R3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcmg.2011.08.011"},{"key":"R4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/circimaging.113.001613"},{"key":"R5","first-page":"180","article-title":"Pericardiectomy for chronic constrictive tuberculous pericarditis: risks and predictors of survival","volume":"30","author":"Bozbuga N","year":"2003","journal-title":"Tex Heart Inst J"},{"key":"R6","first-page":"305","article-title":"Chronic constrictive pericarditis: pending issues","volume":"55","author":"Kothari SS","year":"2003","journal-title":"Indian Heart J"},{"key":"R7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.cir.100.13.1380"},{"key":"R8","first-page":"199","article-title":"Constrictive pericarditis treated by surgery","volume":"39","author":"Ghavidel AA","year":"2012","journal-title":"Tex Heart Inst J"},{"key":"R9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-8703(91)90587-8"},{"key":"R10","first-page":"204","article-title":"Surgical treatment of chronic constrictive pericarditis using an ultrasonic scalpel","volume":"11","author":"Hirai S","year":"2005","journal-title":"Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg"},{"key":"R11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtcvs.2013.01.022"},{"key":"R12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.cir.48.5.1038"},{"key":"R13","first-page":"272","article-title":"Haemodynamic effects of exercise in patients with constrictive pericarditis before and after pericardiectomy","volume":"29","author":"Bhatia ML","year":"1977","journal-title":"Indian Heart J"},{"key":"R14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(70)90801-5"},{"key":"R15","unstructured":"Le Winter MM, Hopkins WE.
