Abstrakt: The study was carried out in 52 patients with a severe course of meningococcal infection. In two of them having meningococcemia and in three with meningococcal meningitis and meningococcemia the disease was complicated by concomitant symptoms of allergic pericarditis. Complex therapy with steroid hormones, antibiotics, oxygen, cardiac glycosides and vitamins was effective in meningococcal infections complicated by myo- and pericarditis but failed to prevent their development.
