Pericarditis, Tuberculous

INFLAMMATION of the sac surrounding the heart (PERICARDIUM) due to MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS infection. Pericarditis can lead to swelling (PERICARDIAL EFFUSION), compression of the heart (CARDIAC TAMPONADE), and preventing normal beating of the heart.

Research Excerpts

Overview

ExcerptReference
"Tuberculous pericarditis is common in Transkei (Eastern Cape)."( Casbard, A; Gibson, DG; Girling, DJ; Johnson, DA; Nunn, AJ; Strang, JI, 2004)
"Tuberculous pericarditis is associated with high morbidity and mortality even if antituberculosis therapy is administered."( Aje, A; Ansa, V; Awotedu, AA; Barasa, AF; Bosch, J; Brown, B; Chitsa Banda, A; Damasceno, A; Danbauchi, S; Essop, MR; Francis, V; Gumedze, F; Hakim, J; Joldersma, L; Jung, H; Kirenga, B; Magula, NP; Manga, P; Matenga, J; Mayosi, BM; Mntla, P; Mondo, C; Naidoo, DP; Ntsekhe, M; Ogah, O; Ojji, D; Olunuga, T; Pandie, S; Peters, F; Pogue, J; Russell, JB; Sani, MU; Smieja, M; Thabane, L; Thomas, B; Thomas, KM; Tsitsi, JM; Yusuf, S, 2014)
"Tuberculous pericarditis is common in immunocompromised patients or in immunocompetent patients in endemic areas."( Chang, SA, 2017)
"Tuberculous pericarditis is a less common but more lethal form of tuberculosis and has a similar inflammatory process in the pericardium."( Raubenheimer, P; Ross, I; Shenje, JT; Wiesner, L, 2023)

Context

ExcerptReference
"Tuberculous pericarditis has been proved by the following examinations: pericardium puncture (21 cases), pericardium and pleural biopsy (respectively 11 and 13 cases), ganglionic biopsy and search of alcohol-acid-fast bacilli in sputum: 1 case."( Auregan, G; Chanteau, S; Lesbordes, JL; Pecarrere, JL; Rakotoniaina, D; Ramanampisoa, C; Rasoamahenina, B; Razafindramboa, H, 1995)
"Tuberculous pericarditis has decreased in incidence, but early diagnosis and treatment are critical because constrictive pericarditis is a serious complication of this condition."( Hayashi, H; Kawamata, H; Kumazaki, T; Machida, M, 1998)

Treatment

ExcerptReference
"Here, we describe an unusual case of tuberculous pericarditis that shows marked increased FDG uptake on initial scan, with decreasing metabolic activity on follow-up scan indicating response to antituberculosis therapy."( Gokcek, A; Koksal, D; Ozcan, A; Ozmen, O; Tatci, E, 2014)
"The diagnosis of tuberculous pericarditis usually requires a multidisciplinary approach, and presumptive treatment should be started for people with suspected infections living in endemic areas."( Chang, SA, 2017)
