✨ 學習重點 🦎

  • 急性心包炎(病毒性、細菌性、結核性或特發性起源)。
  • 自身免疫性疾病。
  • 心肌梗塞或心臟手術後。
  • 尖銳或鈍性胸部創傷,包括心臟診斷或介入手術。
  • 惡性腫瘤,特別是非心臟原發性腫瘤的轉移擴散。
  • 縱隔輻射。
  • 腎功能衰竭伴尿毒症。
  • 粘液性水腫。
  • 主動脈夾層延伸到心包。
  • 藥物

Idiopathic (~90%)

  • Most presumed to be undiagnosed viral etiologies
  • 大多數被認為是未確診的病毒病因

Infectious (<5% can be confirmed infectious)

  • Viral:
    • Coxsackie, Parvovirus B19, echo, adeno, EBV, VZV, HIV, influenza, SARS CoV-2
  • Bacterial (from endocarditis, pneumonia, or s/p cardiac surgery):
    • S. pneumo, N. meningitidis, S. aureus, Borrelia (Lyme); TB
  • Fungi:
    • Histo, Coccidio, Candida; Parasite: Entamoeba, Echino

Non-infectious

Neoplastic (<10%)

  • Common: metastatic (lung, breast, lymphoma, leukemia, RCC)
  • Rare: primary cardiac & serosal tumors (mesothelioma)
  • 常見:轉移性(肺、乳腺、淋巴瘤、白血病、腎細胞癌)
  • 罕見:原發性心臟和漿膜腫瘤(間皮瘤)

Autoimmune

  • Connective tissue diseases: SLE, RA, scleroderma, Sjögren’s
  • Vasculitides: PAN, ANCA ⊕ (EGPA, GPA)
  • Drug-induced: procainamide, hydralazine, inh, CsA

Uremia

~5–13% of Pts prior to HD; ~20% occurrence in chronic HD Pts

Cardiovascular

STEMI, late post-MI (Dressler’s syndrome), but rare in modern era; prox AoD; chest trauma/postpericardiotomy; PCI or EP complication

Radiation

40 Gy to mediastinum; acute or delayed; may be transudative

Effusion w/o pericarditis

HF (particularly R-sided as pericardial fluid drains into RA), cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, hypothyroidism, amyloidosis. Transudative.
