case_images: Hemodynamic findings included intermittent equalization of right and left ventricular end diastolic filling pressures consistent with constrictive pericarditis (Figure 1).

case_images: Further pulmonary evaluation included a high-resolution computerized tomography scan of the chest demonstrating dense calcification of the anterior pericardium (Figure 2); right pleural thickening and nodularity; right pleural plaque without calcification; right middle-lobe linear density consistent with scarring or atelectasis; and bilateral nodules, all > 5 mm in diameter.
