Congenital absence of the pericardium, whether partial or total, is a rare abnormality. It can be very difficult to diagnose clinically as well as to confirm radiographically. Plain film fluoroscopy and CT have been shown to be of value in differentiating this entity from others with similar findings. We report a case in which magnetic resonance was utilized to confirm the diagnosis and the findings of this new technique are described.
先天性心包缺如，无论是部分缺如还是完全缺如，都是一种罕见的异常情况。临床上诊断以及通过影像学检查确诊都可能非常困难。普通X线透视和CT已被证明在鉴别该病症与其他有类似表现的病症方面具有价值。我们报告一例利用磁共振成像来确诊的病例，并描述这项新技术的检查结果。
