  • Purulent pericarditis with contiguous pneumonia
  • Purulent pericarditis with contiguous head and neck infection
  • Purulent pericarditis secondary to infective endocarditis
  • Preferred regimen: Vancomycin 15–20 mg/kg IV q8–12h targeting trough levels of 15–20 μg/mL AND Gentamicin 3 mg/kg/day IV q8–12h
Note: Pericardiocentesis must be promptly performed. Pericardial drainage combined with effective systemic antibiotic therapy is mandatory (antistaphylococcal agent plus aminoglycoside, followed by tailored antibiotic therapy according to cultures). Frequent irrigation of the pericardial cavity with urokinase or streptokinase may be considered. Open surgical drainage through subxiphoid pericardiotomy is preferable. Pericardiectomy may be required in patients with dense adhesions, loculated and thick purulent effusion, recurrence of tamponade, persistent infection, and progression to constriction.


  • Viral pericarditis
  • CMV pericarditis
  • Preferred regimen: immunoglobulin 1 time per day 4 ml/kg on day 0, 4, and 8; 2 ml/kg on day 12 and 16.
Note: Symptomatic treatment is given to the patients with viral pericarditis while in large effusions and cardiac tamponade pericardiocentesis is necessary. The use of corticosteroid therapy is contraindicated except in patients with secondary tuberculous pericarditis, as an adjunct to tuberculosis treatment. Drainage, if needed is done.
  • Coxsackie B pericarditis
  • Preferred regimen: Interferon alpha or beta 2,5 Mio. IU/m2 surface area s.c. 3×per week.
Note: Symptomatic treatment is given to the patients with viral pericarditis while in large effusions and cardiac tamponade pericardiocentesis is necessary. The use of corticosteroid therapy is contraindicated except in patients with secondary tuberculous pericarditis, as an adjunct to tuberculosis treatment. Drainage, if needed is done.
  • Adenovirus and parvovirus B19 perimyocarditis
  • Preferred regimen: Immunoglobulin 10 g intravenously at day 1 and 3 for 6–8 hours
Note: Symptomatic treatment is given to the patients with viral pericarditis while in large effusions and cardiac tamponade pericardiocentesis is necessary. The use of corticosteroid therapy is contraindicated except in patients with secondary tuberculous pericarditis, as an adjunct to tuberculosis treatment. Drainage, if needed is done.
  • Fungal pericarditis
