    AbstractA 74-year-old multimorbid man was admitted with fever of unknown origin. Over time the fever ceased spontaneously. The patient developed signs of a right heart failure without evidence of a primarily cardiac pathogenesis and died of acute right heart failure. Miliary tuberculosis that had lead to pulmonary artery hypertension was diagnosed at autopsy.
