Purulent Bacterial Pericarditis: Rare Yet Lethal.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial pericarditis is a rare phenomenon that progresses rapidly and carries high mortality. Patients presenting with new pericardial effusions are often evaluated for concomitant rheumatologic, oncologic, and infectious diseases. We present a complex case of purulent pericarditis with pneumopericardium.
