Non surgical treatment of empyema thoracis with intrapleural streptokinase in a patient with AIDS.

R F Miller1, A Severn.   

Abstract

After unsuccessful treatment with intercostal tube drainage and antibiotics intrapleural streptokinase was used to treat successfully an empyema in a man with AIDS and advanced cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma who was unfit for surgical decortication. The role of this technique in the management of HIV positive patients with empyema is discussed.
