Parapneumonic Pleural Effusion and Empyema
At least 40% of all patients with pneumonia will have an associated pleural effusion, although a minority will require an intervention for a complicated parapneumonic effusion or empyema. All patients require medical management with antibiotics. Empyema and large or loculated effusions need to be formally drained, as well as parapneumonic effusions ...

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1970
n the late 1950’s a tremendous increase in the incidence of staphylococcal pneumonia and empyema occurred throughout many of the I pediatric centers in the country. This increase was thought to have been caused by the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria [3]. Several papers appeared in the literature reflecting this changing pattern [4,

Cholelithoptysis and pleural empyema
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999We report a case of delayed cholelithoptysis and pleural empyema caused by gallstone spillage at the time of laparoscopic cholecystecomy. An occult subphrenic abscess developed, and the patient became symptomatic only after trans-diaphragmatic penetration occurred. This resulted in expectoration of bile, gallstones, and pus.

Microbiology and Management of Pleural Empyema
2008Empyema is apparently becoming more common, with pneumococcus being the most common pathogen detected in Europe and the USA. However, group A streptococcus and S. aureus pneumonia are individually more likely to progress to empyema. Serotype 1 pneumococcus is frequently implicated and the reasons for an apparent increase in incidence remain unclear ...

Approach to pleural effusions and empyemas
Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2004Parapneumonic effusions in children occur in three not so sharply defined stages: exudative, fibropurulent, and organising.1 Clinically, parapneumonic effusions can be classified as simple, complicated, or purulent. Simple parapneumonic effusions generally contain free-flowing, sterile fluid with normal glucose and pH.
