DETECTION OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS COMPLEX BY REAL-TIME PCR IN PERICARDIAL FLUID AT IBN ROCHD UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL-CASABLANCA: -A CASE REPORT-
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND SURGICAL RESEARCH(2020)
摘要
The diagnosis of pericardial tuberculosis may be difficult and elusive. Rapid treatment can be lifesaving but requires an accurate diagnosis. Conventional diagnostic methods are time-consuming and have low sensitivity, making bacteriological confirmation of the disease very difficult. Hereby, we report a case of a 27-year-old man who presented dyspnea with physical deterioration and anterior chest pain. The use of Real-time PCR for M. tuberculosis complex detection confirmed pericardial tuberculosis. The patient had an excellent response to a three- drug combination antituberculosis regimen and 1 year later was asymptomatic, without evidence of constrictive pericarditis.
