The postoperative complications included low cardiac output syndrome (13.2%), arrhythmia (7.02%), acute renal insufficiency (3.9%), respiratory insufficiency (3.1%), wound infection (2.3%), postoperative chest bleeding (1.6%) and cerebral infarction (0.78%). Relapse occurred in one case because of incomplete pericardial resection.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Constrictive pericarditis should be confirmed as soon as possible with actively surgery, and the extent of pericardial resection should be decided according to the individual conditions.
