Pathophysiology
Physiology
The normal physiology of [name of process] can be understood as follows:
Pathogenesis
- Pericardial effusion is common among asymptomatic HIV positive patients.
- Large effusions causing temponade is rare.
- HAART therapy regimen of HIV possitive patients has decreased the incince of precarditis and pericardial effusion considerably.
- HIV related pericarditis is usually caused by tuberclosis.
- assosiated myocarditis is present in a approximately one -third of cases.
- It has high mortality.
- pericardiosynthesis is essential in order to diagnosis of main cause of pericardial effusion, it include::
- Staphylococcal infection
- Streptococcal infection
- Lymphoma
- Kaposi sarcoma
