Genetic determinants are thought to underlie this functional and morphological entity, based on the existence of Mendelian syndromes with PRS. Here, we demonstrate the association of PRS with trisomy 8p due... |

It requires a timely diagnosis and urgent treatment, such as pericardiocentesis, to save lives of affected patients.
