Cystic lesions in relation to the pericardium are a rare congenital lesion with an estimated incidence of 1 per 100,,000. Pericardial cysts may be classified as congenital or acquired. Here, we present a case of a pericardial pseudocyst having a horseshoe configuration along the atrioventricular groove in a middle-aged subject with no previous relevant medical history. The patient underwent open surgery for the same with histopathological diagnosis being established. This paper highlights the differentials for a cystic pericardial lesion in imaging in addition to the histopathological entity of a pericardial pseudocyst.
与心包相关的囊性病变是一种罕见的先天性病变，估计发病率为十万分之一。心包囊肿可分为先天性或后天性。在此，我们报告一例中年患者的心包假性囊肿，其沿房室沟呈马蹄形，既往无相关病史。患者接受了开放性手术，并确立了组织病理学诊断。本文除了介绍心包假性囊肿的组织病理学特征外，还重点阐述了囊性心包病变在影像学上的鉴别诊断。
