RESUMO

Pleural space infections occur in approximately 10% of patients hospitalized for pneumonia and their incidence is increasing with an aging population. Pulmonary ultrasound is a good bedside diagnostic tool able to reduce complications associated with thoracocentesis and drainage. The RAPID score is being increasingly validated as a predictor for mortality but has not yet been proven useful to guide the treatment strategy and needs incorporation into prospective studies. Awaiting studies on outcome prediction and the comparison of an early surgical strategy versus drainage with intrapleural enzyme therapy, this article presents a summary of current knowledge of this complication.


Les infections de l'espace pleural surviennent chez environ 10 % des patients hospitalisés pour une pneumonie. Leur incidence est en augmentation, en parallèle du vieillissement de la population. L'échographie pleuropulmonaire est un outil diagnostique sensible, directement accessible au lit du malade et permettant de diminuer les complications du drainage grâce au guidage. Le score RAPID a été validé pour prédire la mortalité liée à l'infection de l'espace pleural mais son utilité pour sélectionner la meilleure stratégie thérapeutique reste encore à démontrer. Dans l'attente des résultats d'une étude prospective randomisée comparant une prise en charge chirurgicale précoce au drainage avec fibrinolyse, cet article présente l'état des connaissances concernant le traitement de cette affection.

RESUMO

We report a case of Mycoplasma genitalium endocarditis in a prosthetic heart valve of a woman who sought care in Switzerland for acute aortic valve dysfunction 3 years after valve replacement. This unusual manifestation of infection with this bacterium was diagnosed using broad-range PCR despite suspicion of a mechanical disinsertion.
