[Acute pericarditis with effusion as a form of presentation of psittacosis].

Psittacosis is an uncommon cause of acute pericarditis and pericardial effusion. However, some isolated cases have been reported. We present a case which the first clinical feature of psittacosis was acute pericarditis. Severe pericardial effusion associated with a pulmonary infiltrate and an epidemiologic history of contact with avian species suggested the diagnosis of psittacosis, confirmed by serological test.

[Recurrent acute pericarditis associated with adult-onset Still's disease treated with pericardiectomy].

Recurrent acute pericarditis associated with adult onset Still's disease is an unusual feature. We present a case with recurrent episodes of acute pericarditis with cardiac tamponade which only improved with corticosteroid therapy. Because of the severe and frequent recurrences and corticodependence development, a subtotal pericardiectomy was performed with a good outcome after a 12-month observation period.
