We present an original severe case of tularemia with cutaneous damage, lymphadenopathy and pericarditis ; pathology of increasing incidence in Europe due to global warming. A 33-years-old women consulted emergency unit for altered general condition, anorexia, hyperthermia at 38,3°C, dyspnea and dry cough evolving for few days. Her only history was Crohn's disease with introduction of an anti-TNF alpha for 3 months. The interrogation found regular forest walks ». Treatment with Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid 1g 3 times daily and curative anticoagulation was started after the initial diagnosis of infectious pneumonia associated with pulmonary embolism. The patient reconsulted 2 weeks later for clinical deterioration associated with skin lesions. The chest CT scan showed increased mediastinal lymphadenopathy and a circumferential pericardial effusion ; quantified at 5mm on transthoracic ultrasound. Tularemia serology was positive in IgG at 400IU/mL. Despite an adapted antibiotic therapy with Ciprofloxacin, the patient presented a new brutal clinical deterioration. A pericardiocentesis was performed and the analysis revealed a predominantly neutrophilic exudate and a strongly positive PCR Francisella tularensis. Gentamicin 5mg/kg was associated allowing a resolution of the symptoms. Tularemia is one of the pathologies whose atypical presentation with pericarditis (favored by a certain immunodepression) worsens the prognosis. Global warming influences the epidemiology of inoculation diseases, including tularemia, making it more frequent.
