Purulent pericarditis is defined as a localized pericardial infection with gross pus formation in the pericardial space. Although purulent pericarditis is now rare in the antibiotic era, it may be life-threatening. We describe a rare case of purulent pericarditis that originated from a subdiaphragmatic suppurative focus in an immunocompromised host.

脓性心包炎被定义为心包腔出现肉眼可见脓液形成的局限性心包感染。尽管在抗生素时代脓性心包炎现已罕见，但它可能危及生命。我们描述了一例罕见的脓性心包炎病例，该病例起源于一名免疫功能低下宿主的膈下化脓性病灶。
