Abstract
A case of staphylococcal constrictive pericarditis in a 10 month old male infant is reported here with a brief review of literature. To our knowledge, there have been no reported cases of constrictive pericarditis as a sequela of purulent pericarditis in infancy less than 1 year of age. This case recovered by medical treatment only, requiring no pericardiectomy.
