Abstract
Summary: A case of constrictive pericarditis developed within twenty‐four days of mild, blunt thoracic trauma. Rapid progression from traumatic pericarditis to constriction is documented with clinical evidence, electrocardio‐graphic changes and cardiac catheterisation data. Other manifestations of pericardial reaction after blunt chest trauma are reviewed briefly.Keywords
