[Unusual association of endomyocardial fibrosis and aberrant migration of Dracunculus medinensis in the pericardium].
[dracunculiasis]
We
report
one
case
of
endomyocardial
fibrosis
with
a
relapsing
pericarditis
,
associated
with
an
aberrant
migration
of
Dracunculus
medinensis
in
the
pericardium
,
in
a
22
-
year
-old
patient
from
an
endemic
zone
of
bilharziasis
and
dracunculosis
in
Côte
d
'
Ivoire
.
The
evolution
has
been
marked
by
the
appearance
of
thrombus
in
the
right
atrium
.
The
patient
died
on
the
49
th
day
of
hospitalization
following
an
refractory
cardiac
insufficiency
