    Abstract:
    The osmolar status was studied in 63 patients with acute abscesses of lungs and empyema of pleura at different stages of the conservative and operative treatment. The hypoosmolarity syndrome was revealed at the acute stage of the disease against the background of a pronounced purulent intoxication. An increased excretion of nonidentified osmotically active metabolites with urine was registered at the height of pyodestructive process and postoperative disease.
