Italian term

versamento pericardico parzialmente organizzativo

Italian to English Medical Medical (general)
Finding of an echocardiogram - I'm not sure what 'organizzativo' means in the context of pericardial effusion. The term appears at other points in the document in slightly different forms:
versamento pericardico in fase di organizzazione
versamento pericardico con parziale organizzazione fibrinosa
I've found 'organized pericardial effusion' on google but this is invariably in translations - Help would be much appreciated. Thanks

meaning from Corriere della Sera - Dizionario della Salute -entry: "versamento."
https://www.corriere.it/salute/dizionario/
[...] Il versamento può essere riassorbito completamente, oppure può venire in parte o del tutto organizzato, cioè invaso da connettivo di riparazione con esito nella formazione di ispessimenti fibrosi, o di aderenze tra i due foglietti della sierosa, anche sino all’obliterazione completa della cavità, con disturbo funzionale più o meno grave.

pericardial effusion with partial organizing phase

See reference and discussion

Another answer could be: "partially organized pericardial effusion" but I prefer the first one

Reference:

organizing phase (empyema)

"The organizing or chronic phase is reflected in more lung entrapment with capillary ingrowth and creation of a pleural rind, which traps the lung.
An empyema typically occurs after a reactive pleural effusion as a consequence of a lung infection."
