Necrotizing pneumonia in children

Acta Paediatrica, International Journal of Paediatrics, 2004
Aim: Clinical features and outcome of 36 patients with necrotizing pneumonia (NP) as well as 36 children with parapneumonic effusions (PPE) and 36 with severe control pneumonia (CP) were investigated. The mean age of the patients in the NP, PPE and CP groups were similar (3.8 ± 3.3 (mean ± SD), 4.2 ± 3.0 and 4.2 ± 3.0 y, respectively (p < 0.05 ...

Necrotizing pneumonia due to Streptococcus pneumoniae

Annales de biologie clinique, 2015
We present a patient with a necrotizing pneumonia due to Streptococcus pneumoniae. This complication often affects children and is relatively rare and unrecognized in adults. Its diagnosis is often difficult on chest-X-ray and need a chest computed tomography. No risk factors predisposing to necrosis are described in literature and its mortality is not

Necrotizing pneumonia caused by refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia pneumonia in children

World Journal of Pediatrics, 2018
To investigate the clinical features of necrotizing pneumonia (NP) caused by refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP).A retrospective observational study was carried out in patients with NP caused by RMPP who were admitted to our hospital from January 2008 to December 2015, and the clinical manifestations, laboratory data, imaging performances,

Necrotizing pneumonia

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2012
Necrotizing pneumonia is a rare complication of bacterial lung infection. Its cause is owing to either a virulence factor of the microorganism or a predisposing factor of the host. This disease may cause devastating complications such as diffuse pulmonary inflammation, septic shock, and respiratory failure, making treatment more difficult.

Necrotizing pneumococcal pneumonia in childhood

Pediatric Pulmonology, 1999
We describe the rare complication of necrotizing pneumonia and invasive pneumococcal infection in 3 previously healthy pediatric patients. Lobar consolidation and pleural effusions appeared initially, followed within several days by the appearance of multiple small lucencies in the area of consolidation.

Necrotizing Pneumonia In Children: A Review

Paediatric Respiratory Reviews
The objective of the review was to determine the long-term outcomes of necrotising pneumonia (NP). Studies published since 1990 in English, Portuguese, or Spanish, published on PubMed and Scielo were evaluated. Our findings showed ultrasound scanning is the diagnostic modality of choice.

Aspiration Pneumonia, Necrotizing Pneumonia, and Lung Abscess

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1989
Suppurative complications to aspiration pneumonia occur if the initial aspiration and subsequent pneumonitis go unrecognized or untreated. Anaerobic cavitary disease is typically an indolent process, whereas necrotizing pneumonia is more fulminant and deadly. Rarely are aggressive diagnostic measures necessary in the community-acquired setting.

Bacteremic Necrotizing Pneumococcal Pneumonia in Children

American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine, 1994
Abstract Necrotizing pneumonia, massive necrosis of lung tissue, is a serious, often fatal, complication of lobar pneumonia. Four children 1.3 to 7.5 yr of age were hospitalized with bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia. All of them were acutely ill on presentation with arterial desaturation, and they developed anemia and thrombocytosis.
