A lung abscess is a thick-walled cavity that contains purulent material [1-2]. It is a rare condition in children. It arises as a complication of a poorly controlled pneumonia, and has an estimated incidence of 0.7 per 100,000 hospital admissions/year.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1983
The epidemiologic, microbiologic, radiographic, and clinical presentations of pneumonias caused by the most common pathogens are discussed in detail, and current recommendations for hospitalization are reviewed. Also considered are the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of primary and secondary lung abscess.

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1980
A patient with a clinical course consistent with Legionnaires' disease rapidly developed acute respiratory failure. Sputa and bronchoscopic washings revealed many polymorphonuclear leukocytes but no organisms on gram stain and culture. The diagnosis of Legionnaires' disease was strengthened when the transthoracic aspirate revealed weakly staining gram ...

Diseases of the Chest, 1951
1) Four cases of lung abscess, presumably due to Endamoeba histolytica, without other signs or symptoms suggestive of amebiasis were admitted to one military hospital within 18 months. All had previously lived in the China-Burma-India or Philippine area, were unaware of amebic infestation, and had been in the United States for two or more years ...

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2014
A lung abscess is a circumscribed collection of pus in the lung as a result of a microbial infection, which leads to cavity formation and often a radiographic finding of an air fluid level. Patients with lung abscesses commonly present to their primary care physician or to the emergency department with "nonresolving pneumonia." Although, the incidence ...

To the Editor: —Referring to the editorial inThe Journal, October 8, page 1253, concerning abscess of the lung, it would have been productive of greater good if it had contained mention of the fact that many cases diagnosed abscess of the lung are in reality cases of pulmonary gangrene due to anaerobic organisms, notably spirochetes and fusiform ...
