    • Cardiology
    • Microbiology

    Background:

    • Pericardial effusion can present with symptoms like cough, orthopnea, and chest pain.
    • Mycobacterial infection is a common suspicion for pericarditis, especially with a positive tuberculin skin test.
    • Standard antituberculosis treatment may not be effective for all causes of pericarditis.
