Abstract

The author analyzes 282 cases of purulent pleurisy in children under 13 years of age. The author divides his material into 4 different groups — 1) cases treated by puncture and aspiration of pus; 2) cases treated by thoracocentesis with the introduction of the pleural cavity between the ribs of a rubber tube or metal cannula, with the help of which pus was removed; 3) cases with primary resection of the rib, done immediately after the diagnosis was made; 4) cases with secondary resection, previously treated by puncture or thoracocentesis.
