  • Title: [Pleuro-pulmonary complications of typhoid fever. 1case].
    Author: Bouvier B, Metman EH, Girard JJ, Groussin P.
    Journal: Sem Hop; ; 54(21-24):755-7. PubMed ID: 213845.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of typhoid fever with pleuro-pulmonary complications and recall their characteristics: Usually early (second week), may appear under treatment, whereas the disease evolves normally. Characterised by the absence of infective phenomena, the multiple manifestations, the fleeting course and the favourable prognosis. This corresponds to the pleuro-pulmonary typhus syndrome described long ago, which is probably due to immunological phenomena. Sometimes late, evolving towards suppuration, abscess formation and empyema with presence of typhoid bacilli, rarely seen nowadays.
