Abstract
Systemic infections caused by Clostridium sordellii are rare. They are usually reported in cases of skin and soft tissue infections and sometimes in cases of toxic shock syndrome involving exotoxins. We report here the first case of Clostridium sordellii infection associated with acute constrictive pericarditis and with pyopericardium and tamponade.Entities:
