Abstract

Abstract

Chronic constrictive pericarditis (CCP) is a condition in which thickened, noncompliant pericardium encases heart structures. Association of right atrial (RA) thrombus in CCP imparts some challenges during the perioperative period. Perioperative echocardiography plays a vital role in managing this group of patients. This case series highlights the importance of perioperative echocardiography in managing the patients who had CCP with RA thrombus.
