  • Title: Anaerobic pleuro-pulmonary infections.
    Author: Green SL.
    Journal: Postgrad Med; 1979 Jan; 65(1):62-6, 68-9, 72-4. PubMed ID: 760095.
    Abstract:
    Anaerobic pleuropulmonary infections usually arise from aspiration of oral bacteria. The degree of virulence depends on host factors, especially state of tissue oxygenation, and on size of inoculum. Fetid sputum, if present, frequently is diagnostic. Use of penicillin G is preferred therapy for all forms of anaerobic pleuropulmonary infection.
