Abstract

The chronic constrictive pericarditis is a rare affection, with multiple etiologies and concerning especially the adult. We report a case of chronic constrictive pericarditis in an African child in whom no etiology was found. A review of the literature raises the characteristics of chronic constrictive pericarditis for a better therapeutic management.
