Fibrinous pericarditis in hepatorenal failure.
During a period of two years pericarditis was observed in five patients with decompensated cirrhosis who had only slightly raised blood-urea-nitrogen and serum-creatinine. Although this association has not been previously described, some patients with hepatic failure seem to have pericarditis in the absence of severe uraemia.
