Post-cardiac injury syndrome (PCIS) is an umbrella term used for the post-pericardiotomy syndrome, post-myocardial infarction (MI) related pericarditis (Dressler syndrome), and post-traumatic pericarditis (percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) placement). All these conditions give rise to PCIS due to an inciting cardiac injury to pericardial or pleural mesothelial cells, leading to subsequent inflammation syndromes ranging from uncomplicated pericarditis to massive pleural effusion. We did a literature search on MEDLINE/PubMed for relevant studies using the terms “post-acute cardiac injury syndrome”, “post-cardiac injury syndrome”, “post-cardiotomy syndrome”, “post-pericardiotomy syndrome”, “post-MI pericarditis” and to summarize the body of evidence, all relevant full texts were selected and incorporated in a narrative fashion. Pathophysiology of PCIS is suggested as autoimmune-mediated in predisposed patients who develop anti-actin and anti-myosin antibodies following a cascade of cardiac injury in various forms. Colchicine and NSAIDs including ibuprofen are demonstrated as efficacious in preventing recurrent attacks of PCIS while corticosteroids show no benefit on prognosis and recurrence of the disease. |
