Acute onset of constrictive pericarditis due to acute myelomonocytic leukemia: A case and literature review
Intern Med. 2024 Apr 16. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.3505-24. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe herein present a fatal case of constrictive pericarditis (CP) due to acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMML) in a patient who initially complained of an acute onset of chest pain two days after COVID-19 vaccination. An autopsy revealed pericardial infiltration of leukemic cells. CP is rarely associated with leukemia and only 14 cases have been reported in the literature. The etiology of CP in previous reports included leukemic infiltration, graft-versus-host disease, drug-induced, post-radiation, autoimmune, and otherwise unidenti...

Comparative safety profile of bivalent and original COVID-19 mRNA vaccines regarding myocarditis/pericarditis: A pharmacovigilance study
CONCLUSION: This population-based study provides evidence that bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccination is not associated with risk of myocarditis/pericarditis. These findings provide important insights into the safety profile of bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and support their continued use as updated boosters.PMID:38615382 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112022 (Source: International Immunopharmacology)

A Rare Case of Tuberculous Constrictive Pericarditis Due to Disseminated Tuberculosis with Response to Anti-tuberculosis Chemotherapy and Steroids in a Developed City State
Tuberculosis (TB) is a rare cause of constrictive pericarditis in the developed world, accounting for<5% of all cases.1 In countries where TB is endemic, tuberculous pericarditis is the most common manifestation of TB in the cardiovascular system and pericardial constriction can still occur in up...

Extrapulmonary tuberculosis presenting as hemorrhagic pleuro ‐pericardial effusions with pericardial mass
We report a 59-year-old South Asian male who presented with a 1-week history of dyspnea and cough. He was found to have a hemorrhagic pericardial mass with a massive pericardial effusion. Pleural fluid analysis was positive for TB. The patient was successfully treated with anti-TB medications. Although rare, tuberculous pericardial involvement should be suspected in patients presenting with symptoms of pericardial masses and effusion. (Source: Clinical Case Reports)

Pericarditis recurrence is associated with milder electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, and laboratory findings
The objective findings of AP are less pronounced during recurrent events. Future studies should focus on the role of advanced biomarkers and imaging in defining true RP events. (Source: Internal and Emergency Medicine)
