Abstract

We describe a case of a 57-year-old Caribbean-Black male with a medical history of concealed human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who presented with cardiac tamponade (CT) secondary to disseminated histoplasmosis. The patient underwent emergent pericardiocentesis with immediate normalization of his hemodynamic status and resolution of obstructive shock. The clinician should consider atypical etiologies of CT, such as opportunistic infections in patients with HIV/AIDS.

我们描述了一个57岁的加勒比海黑人男性，有隐蔽性人类免疫缺陷病毒/获得性免疫缺陷综合征的病史，他表现为继发于播散性组织胞浆菌病的心脏压塞（CT）。患者接受了紧急心包穿刺，血液动力学状态立即恢复正常，梗阻性休克消退。临床医生应考虑CT的非典型病因，如HIV/AIDS患者的机会性感染。
