    AbstractAn unusual case of a 9 year old girl with primary pericarditis and cardiac tamponade due to Hemophilus influenzae is reported. Meningitis or manifestations in other organs could be excluded. Despite pericardial drainage for three weeks beginning at the 11th day of illness, a chambered pericardial effusion developed, which could be localized more exactly by cross-sectional echocardiography than by axial computerized tomography.
