The authors report a case of typhoid fever with pleuro-pulmonary complications and recall their characteristics: Usually early (second week), may appear under treatment, whereas the disease evolves normally. Characterised by the absence of infective phenomena, the multiple manifestations, the fleeting course and the favourable prognosis. This corresponds to the pleuro-pulmonary typhus syndrome described long ago, which is probably due to immunological phenomena. Sometimes late, evolving towards suppuration, abscess formation and empyema with presence of typhoid bacilli, rarely seen nowadays.
作者报告了一例伴有胸膜肺部并发症的伤寒热病例，并回顾了其特征：通常在早期（第二周）出现，可能在治疗过程中出现，而疾病进展正常。其特点是无感染现象、表现多样、病程短暂且预后良好。这与很久以前描述的胸膜肺部伤寒综合征相符，可能是由免疫现象引起的。有时较晚出现，进展为化脓、脓肿形成和脓胸，伴有伤寒杆菌，如今很少见。
