Lung abscess in the elderly
Lung abscess is a localized suppurative and necrotic lesion with a central cavity. It can be caused by a variety of suppurative bacteria. Clinically, it is characterized by high fever, cough, and coughing up a lot of purulent sputum. X-ray chest films show that there are cavities in the lung parenchyma. This disease is more common in middle-aged people, more common in men than in women. After penicillin was widely used, the incidence of lung abscess decreased significantly, accounting for about 2% of all pneumonia, but the incidence of lung abscess secondary to bronchial lung cancer has increased, which should be paid great attention.
