Abstract:
:Mycobacterium kansasii infection is a recognized complication of AIDS and a broad spectrum of extrapulmonary manifestations has been reported. However, AIDS-related M. kansasii pericarditis is an extremely rare disease. We report the first European case of this infection, that presented some different clinical findings to those previously described in HIV-infected individuals. M. kansasii pericarditis was the first AIDS-defining illness presented by the patient. The stained smears of pericardial fluid were negative for acid-fast bacilli and an increased level of adenosine deaminase was observed in pericardial fluid. A short course of prednisone therapy was added to antituberculous treatment, with a good clinical response.
