A case of tuberculous pericarditis id reported with a brief review of the literature. the patient was a 13-year-old female who was admitted to the Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Hospital because of dyspnea and mild fever. Although a tuberculin test was negative on her, the triple chemotherapy for tuberculosis was instituted and resulted in a marked improvement. However, on discontinuation of the teraphy due to ignorance, the disease relapsed and the patient developed pericardial effusion. The diagnosis of tuberculosis pericarditis was suspected on physical examination and the X-ray study, and was confirmed by the intraperitoneal innoculation into a guinea-pig of the pericardial fluid.
