==Overview==
==Overview==
Pericarditis can present as a disorder primarily involving the pericardium (e.g viral etiologies), as manifestation of a systemic illness (e.g. autoimmune illnesses), or as a manifestation of a disorder involving an adjacent anatomic structure (e.g. cancer).
The [[causes]] of pericarditis can be divided into [[infectious]] and [[Infectious|non-infectious]] ones. [[Infectious]] causes include [[bacterial]], [[viral]], [[fungal]] and, [[parasitic]]. While, non-[[infectious]] causes include [[autoimmune]], [[neoplastic]], [[metabolic]], [[Trauma|traumatic]] and [[iatrogenic]], and [[Drug-related pericarditis|drug-related.]] [[Acute myocardial infarction]], [[Addisonian crisis]], [[aortic dissection]] and [[Aortic rupture|rupture]], [[chest trauma|blunt or penetrating chest trauma]], [[esophageal perforation]], [[Perforation|gastric perforation]], and [[myocardial rupture]] are life threatening [[causes]] of pericarditis. Common [[causes]] of pericarditis include [[viral]], [[bacterial]] [[organisms]], [[neoplasms]], [[autoimmune]] and [[renal failure]].

'''Tuberculous:''' usually bloody, protein greater than 2.5. Initially mostly [[polymorphonuclear cells]], later [[lymphocytes]], [[monocytes]] and [[plasma cells]].  Usually develops very slowly with significant fibrous reaction.  Initially effusive then becomes constrictive. Other[[Mycoplasma]] can cause pericarditis is well.
 
'''Purulent:''' [[Pneumococcus]], [[Streptococcus]] and [[Staphylococcus]] are most common.  Also [[Brucellosis]], [[E.coli]], [[Francisella]], [[Haemophilus influenza]], [[Klebsiella]], [[Legionella]](preodominantly by hematogenous spread and approximately 20% by contiguous spread.  Usually these patients are quite ill), [[Meningococci]], [[Neisseria]], [[Proteus]], [[Psuedomonas]], [[Salmonella]], [[Tularemia]].

[[Rheumatoid arthritis]] or [[RA]]: Pericarditis can occur without active joint involvement.  Also serous or bloody.  Usually the protein is > 5 mg/dl, and the glucose is low (<45).  The [[WBC]] is high at 20-90K.  Complement is usually low, and the latex fixation test is usually positive.

Risk calculators and risk factors for Pericarditis causes

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]; Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Mugilan Poongkunran M.B.B.S [2] Ahmed Zaghw, M.D. [3] Homa Najafi, M.D.[4]

Overview

The causes of pericarditis can be divided into infectious and non-infectious ones. Infectious causes include bacterial, viral, fungal and, parasitic. While, non-infectious causes include autoimmune, neoplastic, metabolic, traumatic and iatrogenic, and drug-related. Acute myocardial infarction, Addisonian crisis, aortic dissection and rupture, blunt or penetrating chest trauma, esophageal perforation, gastric perforation, and myocardial rupture are life threatening causes of pericarditis. Common causes of pericarditis include viral, bacterial organisms, neoplasms, autoimmune and renal failure.

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated and include:[1][2][3][4]
