[Metastatic lung abscesses].

The metastatic origin of abscesses was established in 10 of 142 patients (7%) with acute pulmonary abscesses. The disease was observed to be of severe course, being accompanied by pleural and other complications in all the cases. Thirteen distinctive signs of metastatic abscesses were revealed which determine the curative methods. The main problem in the treatment of such patients is struggle against sepsis, correction of immune processes in the organism, sanitation of the abscess cavity through the tracheobronchial tree and liquidation of pleural complications.

Lung abscess and empyema of the thorax.

Empyema is best managed by the physician familiar with the indications and principals of the various procedures used in the treatment of empyema of the thorax. The objective of each modality used to treat empyema is to drain the pleura cavity and to allow full expansion of the lung. If the infected material can be removed and the visceral and parietal pleural approximated, the body will heal the pleural infection. The procedure chosen to treat empyema greatly depends upon the phase of maturation of the empyema when treatment is begun.
