Abstract
- We report the case of a 31-year-old woman who died in a context of haemophagocytic syndrome with multiple opportunist infections:viral, mycobacterial and fungal. To our knowledge, this is the tenth case of invasive aspergillosis manifested by an aspergillus pericarditis with cardiac tamponade. Search for HIV infection, neoplasia, haematological malignancies was negative. In addition, the patient carried on a nonviral, non-ethylic cirrhosis, the etiology of which remained unknow. We will particularly develop the aspergillus pericarditis with cardiac tamponade and the haemophagocytic syndrome.
