Core Tip |
Tuberculous pericarditis should be suspected in the evaluation of all cases of pericarditis that do not have a self-limited course. The present case identifies the usefulness of the study of Adenosine deaminase in the pericardial fluid and the performance of polymerase chain reaction for Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the biopsy, thanks to which the diagnosis could be confirmed. Management is based on the use of rifampin, isoniazid, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide. |
