Overview

Tuberculous pericarditis has a variable clinical presentation and should be considered in the evaluation of all cases of pericarditis that are not self-limiting[1]. It is a difficult disease to diagnose and hence several diagnostic tools are employed[2][3]. The history and symptoms are just one such tool.

History and symptoms

The patient may present with the following symptoms:

The frequency and severity of the above symptoms varies with the stage of the infection, the degree of involvement of the pericardium, and the degree of extrapericardial infection.
