Abstract
The frequency of tuberculous pericarditis has diminished in recent years. Large calcific pericardial deposits are specific signs for pericardial tuberculosis. In this study we’re presenting a case of chronic constrictive tuberculous pericarditis with large calcific pericardial deposits. Conventional open pericardiectomy via the median sternotomy , which enables a safer, wider, and more effective approach.
