A recent study conducted at two pediatric cardiac centers compared the outcomes of surgical pericardial window and pericardiocentesis in children with postpericardiotomy syndrome. The study included 42 children aged under 18 years who developed the syndrome following cardiac surgery. The results showed that both procedures had similar efficacy, safety, and resource utilization, with no significant differences in complications or duration of hospitalization. The study suggests that both surgical pericardial window and pericardiocentesis are effective options for draining pericardial effusions in children with postpericardiotomy syndrome.

A recent study conducted at Valley Baptist Medical Center in Harlingen, Texas, has found that postpericardiotomy syndrome (PPS) can be a rare complication following the removal of a cardiac myxoma. The study focused on a 78-year-old female patient who developed PPS after the removal of a large left atrial myxoma. The patient experienced symptoms such as decreased hemoglobin and blood pressure, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), and moderate pericardial effusion. The researchers emphasize the importance of monitoring patients for symptoms of PPS after myxoma removal. [Extracted from the article]

Signs and symptoms of the disease; Administration of erythrocyte sedimentation rate; Protection of the gastrointestinal tract; Occurrence of the postoperative pericardial tamponade whether or not the pericardium is closed.

The article discusses the diagnosis of postpericardiotomy syndrome in a 3-year old boy. The patient presented to an emergency department with chest pain and breathing difficulty. About three weeks before presentation, he had undergone open atrial septal defect (ASD) surgery. Postpericardiotomy syndrome pertains to the development of pericarditis or symptomatic pericardial effusion after a cardiac operation. The clinical manifestations of postpericardiotomy syndrome and the treatment approach for this condition are mentioned.
