title: [Tuberculous pericarditis].
abstract: A case of specific tuberculous pericarditis is described. A short clinical and etiological classification of pericarditis is given. There are so many new forms of pericarditis today, like autoimmune, postirradiation, drug induced, etc. Specific tuberculous pericarditis is rarely registered today. One must intend to specify TB pericarditis almost if pericardial effusion is present. Pericardial punction is of much help in the diagnosis and treatment of pericardial effusion. Steroid therapy is very important in prevention of forming pericardial adhesions.
