Severe Necrotizing Community-Acquired Pneumonia and Bilateral Empyema in an Immunocompetent Patient due to <i>Fusobacterium necrophorum</i>. [PDF]
Necrotizing pneumonia and empyema caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum are uncommon. The classical presentation of Lemierre′s syndrome, characterized by pharyngotonsillitis and internal jugular vein thrombosis, is not always observed, and incomplete and atypical variants can cause diagnostic uncertainty and delay in treatment.

Fusobacterium necrophorum pelvic peritonitis and bacteremia mimicking intestinal necrosis
Fusobacterium necrophorum infection is known to cause Lemierre's syndrome, not pelvic peritonitis. Herein, we report a case of Fusobacterium necrophorum pelvic peritonitis and bacteremia, without Lemierre's syndrome, mimicking intestinal necrosis.
