Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A 50-yr-old man developed constrictive pericarditis following an episode of acute pericarditis. Cardiac catheterization revealed a typical early diastolic dip and plateau configuration in both the right and left ventricular pressure curves. The coronary flow velocity pattern determined using an intracoronary Doppler guidewire showed an abrupt decrease in peak velocity at early diastole and followed by plateau until late diastole, the so-called dip and plateau configuration. After a successful pericardiectomy, cardiac catheterization no longer showed the dip and plateau configuration, but the early diastolic dip in the coronary flow velocity persisted probably because of infiltration of the organic involvement into the myocardium. |
