Constrictive pericarditis as a complication of cardiac surgery does exist. Although the problem is somewhat uncommon, it should be suspected in patients following cardiac surgery who present with deteriorating cardiac function. The clinical spectrum of the disease is wide and may present as true rigid shell constriction or a more subtle form of elastic sero-effusive construction. It is imperative for the physician to consider this entity in the differential of complications following cardiac surgery.
缩窄性心包炎作为心脏手术的一种并发症确实存在。尽管这个问题 somewhat uncommon（此处英文有误，可能是“somewhat uncommon”，意思是“有些不常见”），但对于心脏手术后出现心功能恶化的患者应予以怀疑。该疾病的临床谱很广，可能表现为真正的坚硬外壳样缩窄或更隐匿的弹性浆液性渗出性缩窄形式。医生在鉴别心脏手术后的并发症时必须考虑到这种情况。
