Introduction: The evolution of the microbial epidemiology of pleuropulmonary infections complicating community-acquired pneumonia has resulted in a change in empirical or targeted antibiotic therapy in children in the post Prevenar 13 era. The three main pathogens involved in pleural empyema in children are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and group A Streptococcus.
Methods: A questionnaire according to the DELPHI method was sent to experts in the field (paediatric pulmonologists and infectious disease specialists) in France with the purpose of reaching a consensus on the conservative antibiotic treatment of pleural empyema in children.

In the study of 65 microbial cultures isolated from the purulent foci in acute pulmonary abscess and acute pyothorax of 48 patients, a wide spectrum of microflora was detected. Staphylococci and Pseudomonas prevailed among aerobes, bacteroids and peptostreptococci--among anaerobes. In cases of the prolonged course of the pathological process, as compared with the common one, microorganisms exhibited hemolytic activity and high antilysozyme and anticomplementary levels.

A PEDIATRIC PATHOGEN: Staphylococci remain one of the most important pathogenic agents leading to community-acquired infection in children. Over the last decades, there has been an evolution in the localizations of these infections: dramatic pleuropulmonary staphylococcal infection in newborns has almost entirely disappeared in developed countries. Conversely, skin infections and soft tissue infections as well as bone and joint localizations are frequent.

Purpose: Infections of the cardiac suture line after left ventricular surgery are rare but may be fatal if not diagnosed promptly and treated effectively. In order to alert physicians to this entity, we reviewed data from three patients who presented at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital and from 22 patients in the literature.
Patients And Methods: The three patients in the current report underwent treatment at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital.
