Abstract
|
|
|
Spontaneous bacterial empyema is defined as an infection of preexisting pleural effusion in the absence of any obvious intrathoracic source. criteria for diagnosis include positive pleural fluid culture or polymorphonuclear leukocyte
concentration
more
than 500 cells/㎟ in pleural fluid and evidence of pleural dffusion before an infectious episode.
We experienced a case of spontaneous bacterial empyema with liver cirrhosis in a 52-year-old man treated with antibiotics and closed thoracostomy.
