description | Aims : To establish the influence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection on the histopathological features of patients presenting with tuberculous pericarditis.
Methods and results : A prospective study was carried out at Tygerberg Academic Hospital, South Africa; 36 patients with large pericardial effusions had open pericardial biopsies under general anaesthesia and were included in the study. Patients underwent pericardiocentesis, followed by daily intermittent catheter drainage; a comprehensive diagnostic work‐up (including histopathology of the pericardial tissue) was also performed. Histological tuberculous pericarditis was diagnosed according to predetermined criteria. Tuberculous pericarditis was identified in 25 patients, five of whom were HIV+. The presence of granulomatous inflammation (with or without necrosis) and/or Ziehl–Neelsen positivity yielded the best test results (sensitivity 64%, specificity 100% and diagnostic efficiency 75%).
Conclusions : Co‐infection with HIV impacts on the histopathological features of pericardial tuberculosis and leads to a decrease in the sensitivity of the test. In areas which have a high prevalence of tuberculosis, the combination of a sensitive test such as adenosine deaminase, chest X‐ray and clinical features has a higher diagnostic efficiency than pericardial biopsy in diagnosing tuberculous pericarditis. |
