Abstract

Staphylococcal pleuropulmonary disease (SPP) is the localization of pathogenic staphylococcal disease in the lung and pleura and its general haematogenic consequences. This location is not primary, but follows a primary skin or mucous infection that may go unnoticed. This is a very rare phenomenon in neonatology and in the various literature reviews. Through our observation we report the clinical diagnosis of a newborn 13-day age with pleuro-pulmonary staphyloccocia point of departure cutaneous, thus the paraclinical explorations performed in our patient therapeutic management and evolutionary profile after a 3-month decline. Note that the problem of resistance of staphylococci to different antibiotics is currently a real public health problem making the choice of treatment very difficult for the clinician.
