Incidental finding of congenital pericardial defect during vats bullectomy. Tips and tricks to avoid blunder
Annals of Medicine and Surgery(2021)
摘要
The absence of a small portion of the pericardium is termed pericardial defect. This rare entity can be either acquired or congenital. The prevalence of congenital pericardial defect is exceedingly rare, which is approximately 0.002–0.004% of surgical and pathologic series. The most common type is the absence of the entire left side of pericardium, seen in 67% of all patients with a congenital pericardial defect. Other varieties are incredibly uncommon. Congenital pericardial defect has a male preponderance with a male to female ratio of 3:1, and familial occurrence is uncommon.
