Popis: The authors report a case of pasteurellosis with abscess of the brain consecutive to a bronchopulmonary infection in a woman with old-standing bilateral bronchiectasis. The prevalence of respiratory infections caused by Pasteurella multocida is low, but it is certainly underestimated. Bronchial and/or pleuro-pulmonary infections occur in subjects with reduced local and/or systemic defences. The respiratory system is colonized by direct or indirect contagion, usually in contact with pet animals carrying the organism.
