Article en En | MEDLINE | ID: mdl-38687851
ABSTRACT

Objective:

Necrotizing pneumonia is a rare and serious complication in pediatric patients, and its treatment often involves the complexity of choosing between surgical intervention and medical management. The disease is difficult to treat because of its devastating characteristics and high mortality rate, especially when considering the risks associated with surgery. The purpose of this report is to present two cases of necrotizing pneumonia in pediatric patients and demonstrate successful conservative management to provide additional insights for clinical decision-making. Case Report We report two pediatric patients, aged 3 years 7 months and 7 years respectively, who presented with varying degrees of clinical symptoms, including persistent high fever, shortness of breath, and were confirmed to have necrotizing pneumonia after thorough diagnosis and underwent a period of intensive care. Weeks of treatment. Both patients received long-term antibiotic therapy, ventilator support, and analgesia. Conservative management including type of antibiotics, duration of treatment, specific parameters of respiratory support, and analgesic medications is detailed.

Conclusion:

Our case report highlights that necrotizing pneumonia can be successfully treated with conservative treatment, thus obviating the need for early surgical intervention. These findings are potentially important for guiding clinical practice, suggesting that conservative management can be an effective treatment strategy for necrotizing pneumonia in certain circumstances.
