Late bronchopleural fistula and Hemophilus influenzae empyema complicating longstanding oleothorax: report of two cases

E Tsou, H Yeager Jr and S Katz

The first patient died after drainage with a pleurocutaneous flap, and a seven-rib thoracoplasty failed to resolve her infection. In the second, resection of the oleothorax cavity and left upper lobe resulted in cure.
