Abstract
Three cases of tuberculous pericarditis treated with streptomycin responded with prompt and persistent improvement. Only 7 reports of the use of streptomycin in tuberculous pericarditis were found in the American and foreign literature. These were reviewed and also found to suggest strongly the efficacy of streptomycin in this disease.Keywords
