A case of pulmonary nocardiosis with empyema in a 55-year-old man with macroglobulinemic lymphoma is presented. Treatment with imipenem followed by oral trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) resolved his symptoms and cleared the roentgenographic abnormalities. This case illustrates the clinical potential of imipenem against Nocardia.
