Three childhood cases of beta-hemolytic streptococcal pneumonia are presented with a review of the literature. The disease, though uncommon in childhood, results in severe local and systemic effects. Hematologic fluid and electrolyte problems are frequent. Pericardial disease and secondary bacterial invasion are added dangers encountered in management. Early and vigorous drainage of the pleural cavity is essential to successful outcome. It appears that predisposing viral disease, including influenza, is essential for acquisition of this form of bacterial pneumonia.
本文报告了3例儿童β溶血性链球菌肺炎病例，并对相关文献进行了综述。该疾病在儿童时期虽不常见，但会导致严重的局部和全身影响。血液学、液体和电解质问题很常见。心包疾病和继发性细菌感染是治疗中遇到的额外风险。胸腔早期积极引流对成功治疗至关重要。似乎包括流感在内的易患病毒性疾病是发生这种细菌性肺炎的必要条件。
