Abstract

Abstract. Acute empyema belongs to the category of severe surgical pathology. The difficulty of its treatment is caused by a number of objective and subjective reasons, in particular such as wide spread of antibiotic-resistant microflora and population allergy. Carefully collected analysis, patient’s examination, study of lungs function indicators, data of laboratory and X-ray studies, performing of serological, immunological and allergic tests do not always allow to identify the cause of acute empyema and are often not sufficient to identify its etiology. In spite of a great number of proposed methods of acute pleural empyema treatment, study of long-term results of all types of treatment shows that they do not guarantee 100% success. The outlined data indicates the necessity of improvement of etiotropic therapy in patients with pleural empyema. Constant search for new effective methods of treatment of the aimed pathology proves the relevance of the theme. The data outlined in this article indicates the necessity of improvement of etiotropic therapy in patients with pleural empyema.
