Abstract
Serious complications of pneumococcal pneumonia have become uncommon. This has been attributed to decline in pneumococcal infection (van Roy et al. 1971; Foy et al. 1975), but in this country it is more likely to be due to effective antibiotic therapy. We report a case of pneumococcal pneumonia with severe complications (including a very unusual one) which probably arose through antibiotic failure.
