Abstract

Abstract. The experience of treating 263 patients with acute abscesses and lung gangrene is generalized. Acute abscesses are mainly subject to conservative treatment; surgical interventions were performed in 13%. With gangrene of the lung, conservative treatment and palliative operations are futile. Preference is given to early radical operations performed before dangerous complications occur. Possible ways to reduce mortality in acute pulmonary suppuration are indicated.
