Salmonella empyema in an immunologically compromised patient with malignant pleural effusion is described. Antimicrobial treatment was ineffective when given parenterally. Intrapleural administration of antibiotics resulted in a rapid rise of the antibacterial activity of the pleural fluid, leading to rapid clinical improvement and eradication of the infections.
本文描述了一名免疫功能低下且伴有恶性胸腔积液的患者发生沙门氏菌脓胸的情况。经胃肠外途径给予抗菌治疗无效。胸腔内注射抗生素导致胸腔积液的抗菌活性迅速升高，从而使临床症状迅速改善且感染得以根除。
