Constrictive pericarditis due to bacterium tularease. Report of a case and review of reported cases of pericarditis occurring with tularemia: Jager, B. V., and Ransmeier, J. C.: Bull. Johns Hopkins Hosp. 72: 166, 1943

Abstract

A boy of seven years had a single punched-out ulcer of the bulbar conjunctiva and the episclera, with necrotic center. There had been no previous illness resembling tularemia, and no animal source of infection could be traced. The blood serum gave positive agglutination with Bacterium tularense at the end of the first week. The history of the subject is carefully reviewed. Read before the Indiana Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, December 14, 1927.
