摘要

假假杆菌伯克氏菌作为胸胸脓肿的致病菌在以往文献中很少被提及。在此，我们报告了两例(一名66岁男性农民和一名57岁男性保安)表现为发烧和胸膜炎性胸痛。他们的胸部电脑断层扫描显示胸腔积液，经胸腔穿刺证实为直率的脓液。脓液培养分离假芽孢杆菌的结果适于诊断类鼻疽。这些患者在没有胸管引流的情况下使用适当的抗生素治疗成功。虽然不常见，但类鼻疽症可能只表现为胸部脓肿。

Melioidosis Presenting Predominantly as Thoracic Empyema.

Burkholderia pseudomallei has been rarely mentioned as a causative organism of thoracic empyema in previous literature. Here, we reported two cases (a 66-year-old male farmer and a 57-year-old male security guard) presenting with fever and pleuritic chest pain. Their chest computed tomography scans revealed pleural effusion which was frank pus confirmed through thoracentesis. The result of pus culture isolated B. pseudomallei suitable to diagnose melioidosis. These patients were treated successfully with appropriate antibiotics without chest tube drainage. Although uncommon, melioidosis could present exclusively as thoracic empyema.
