Abstract
Lung abscesses in children often respond to conservative treatment. This is unlikely in children less than 7 years of age and in these surgery is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We report a neonate and a 2.5 year old child successfully treated with percutaneous computed tomography guided aspiration of lung abscesses.Entities:
