First Case of Acute Pleural Empyema Caused by Mediterraneibacter gnavus

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
We report the first case of acute pleural empyema caused by Mediterraneibacter gnavus, a gut commensal organism, identified by anaerobic culture in combination with MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This case suggests that M. gnavus can act as an opportunistic pathogen in patients with significant comorbidities and highlights ...

Pneumococcal Pleural Empyemas in Children [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 1996
Empyema rarely complicates pneumonia. In a 361-bed regional pediatric hospital, 50 pleural empyemas were identified from 1988 through 1994; 17 (34%) occurred in the last 12 months of this period, for which the incidence was 3.3 per 100,000 of the population aged < or = 18 years (P < .05, chi 2 test).

Disseminated Thoracic Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infection Mimicking Tuberculosis in a Patient on Haemodialysis

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Disseminated thoracic MRSA infection may mimic tuberculosis with cavitary lung disease, pleural empyema and pericardial involvement. Bedside point‐of‐care ultrasound facilitated early recognition of multi‐compartment thoracic suppuration and guided prompt drainage.
