Subdural empyema is a distinct clinical entity not uncommon in Ceylon. Forty‐seven cases have been analysed. The commonest sources of infection are otitis media and frontal sinusitis. These empyemas are often complicated by cortical thrombophlebitis, meningitis and intracerebral abscesses.

Aspergillus empyema occurred in a 69-year-old man six years after pneumonectomy. Exposed silk suture at the bronchial stump acted as a nidus and permitted extension of infection into the pleural space. Resolution was achieved by drainage and removal of the silk suture.

Parapneumonic effusion and empyema thoracis remains a significant source of morbidity in children, though the overall incidence of empyema thoracis has decreased in the past two decades. These conditions pose a dilemma regarding evaluation and treatment for the treating physician.

Abstract The clinical courses of 35 tuberculous empyema patients were investigated retrospectively from November 1990 through November 1995. Most patients had nonspecific symptoms and signs but with far‐advanced pulmonary parenchymal lesions in their chest roentgenographs.

Subdural empyema represents loculated infection between the outermost layer of the meninges, the dura, and the arachnoid. The empyema may develop intracranially or in the spinal canal. Intracranial subdural empyema is most frequently a complication of sinusitis or, less frequently, otitis or neurosurgical procedures. Spinal subdural empyema is rare and

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2002
Empyema is a serious complication after pneumonectomy. It is often associated with a bronchopleural fistula. Several risk factors have been associated with an increased incidence of these two challenging complications. Therapy aims at simultaneously treating the infected pleural space and the fistula.

This is a report of the experience gained from treating 18 patients with posttraumatic empyema during a 36-month period. The objectives of treatment were twofold: complete reexpansion of the lung, and evacuation of infected foreign material from the pleural space.
