Article Abstract
Pericarditis means inflammation in the pericardial sac. Pericarditis is divided into three categories based on morphology, including fibrinous, purulent, and constrictive. In the present study, a 7-month-old male Ghezel breed sheep was examined for low weighting rate for three months. Tachypnea, tachycardia, heart friction sound, absence of fever and normal appetite were recorded in the clinical examination. In the patient's history, there was a history of perforated chest trauma behind the left scapula about three months ago. After the echocardiography examination and bacteriology procedures, purulent pericarditis caused by Proteus mirabilis was diagnosed. The bacterium was analysed using genome sequencing and new strain called Abhar114 was diagnosed. This is the first report of pericarditis caused by Proteus mirabilis in sheep.

Uremic polyserositis is a rare and often underdiagnosed manifestation of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), typically characterized by concurrent or sequential inflammation of multiple serosal membranes. We report a diagnostically challenging case of a 40-year-old woman with ESRD on intermittent hemodialysis who presented with dyspnea following a missed dialysis session. Imaging revealed bilateral pleural effusions, a moderate-to-large pericardial effusion, and ascites.

Constrictive pericarditis is a condition in which inflammation of the pericardium results in the loss of pericardial elasticity, leading to restricted ventricular filling. This case reports a male in his 50s who presented with symptoms of bilateral pedal oedema and dyspnoea. Examination revealed a raised jugular venous pulse, abdominal dullness and crepitations in both lungs.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multisystem autoimmune disease; cardiac involvement is a recognized complication, with pericardial effusion being one of the most frequent manifestations. Here, we present a patient with massive pericardial effusion in a known SLE patient without hemodynamic instability, highlighting concepts of pericardial compliance and physiological adaptation in autoimmune disease. We present a case of a 33-year-old female with a known history of SLE who presented with progressively worsening pleuritic chest pain over three weeks.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment but are associated with various adverse effects, including myocarditis, with mortality rates up to 50%. We report a case of fatal ICI-related fulminant eosinophilic myo-pericarditis complicated by tamponade in a 69-year-old man with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma.
Case Summary: Two weeks after receiving one dose of pembrolizumab, the patient presented with sudden chest pain and dyspnoea.
