Abstract

In 80 patients with renal insufficiency we found 15 cases of pericarditis, demonstrated by the diagnostic means of echocardiography. The incidence of pericarditis increased with the rise in serum-creatinin and the severity of hypalbuminemia. These findings confirm the assumption that toxic capillary damage combined with lowered oncotic pressure might be a cause of pericardial effusion. Echocardiography as a reliable and non-invasive diagnostic method should be applied routinely in patients with chronic renal insufficiency--regarding potential therapeutic consequences--especially in patients with a concomitant incidence of hypalbuminemia and pleural effusion.
