Abstract
Uremic pericarditis, once a major cause of morbidity and mortality (including sudden death), continues to be a severe complication of end-stage renal disease. Its importance and gravity led to the disease illustration in artificial models. The authors highlight the importance of Pathology Museum specimens, namely “wax models”, in the teaching curriculum of medical students and young doctors, by showing the similarity between the heart of a recent fatal case and a wax model from the XIXth century.
