Abstract

We describe a case in which the rapid diagnosis of tuberculous pericarditis was made using the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB)-specific enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay on pericardial effusion mononuclear cells (PEMCs). The analysis of MTB-specific T-cells in PEMCs by ELISPOT may be useful for rapid decision-making in anti-tuberculous treatment.
