Abstract

AbstractIn the Transkei it was so frequently found that it was referred to as the “Transkei Heart.” The prognosis in tuberculous pericarditis is invariably bad and death may take place within one or two years but more often within a few months.Michael GelfandThe Sick African, Third Edition, 1957
