Proceeding from the investigation and therapy of 106 patients with pleuropulmonary complications of sepsis the authors described clinical and x-ray features of different types of their course, complications and outcomes. In 58% of cases pulmonary lesions were detected at the stage of pyodestruction and pleural empyema; interstitial-focal and infiltrative pneumonias of considerable spreading with the development of a respiratory type of septic shock were observed less frequently. Pulmonary lesions in 24% were the only sign of septicopyemia, in 58% they prevailed in the clinical picture of polyorganic lesions; pleural complications developed in 32% of the patients. Convalescence was observed in 88 (83%) patients; they had residual bullous-sclerotic pulmonary changes. The lethality rate was 17%. |
