| Core Tip |
Purulent pericarditis is a rare, life-threatening localized infection of the pericardial space that is fatal if left untreated. It is most commonly caused by staphylococcus aureus and streptococcus pneumoniae species. Purulent pericarditis, particularly from community-acquired pneumonia, is a rare occurrence. Diagnosis is commonly obtained via an echocardiogram, and treatment includes pericardiocentesis and antibiotic therapy. This article presents a rare case of purulent pericarditis due to community-acquired pneumonia that was successfully treated. |
