[Nonclostridial obligate anaerobes--the main causative agents of lung abscesses].
The use of the anaerobic technique in bacteriological investigations has made it possible to establish the leading role of asporogenous anaerobes in the etiological structure of the causative agents of pulmonary abscesses. Asporogenous anaerobes have been isolated from 93% of all examined patients, and in 54.4% of such patients these microorganisms have proved to be an independent etiological factor. Among asporogenous anaerobes, the main causative agents of pulmonary abscesses have been found to belong to four genera: Bacteroides, Fusobacterium, Peptococcus and Peptostreptococcus. Pulmonary abscesses of purely aerobic etiology are rather rare (5.3%). The schemes of the antibacterial treatment of patients with pulmonary abscesses, developed with regard to the leading etiological role of asporogenous anaerobes and clinically approved, have permitted achieving a considerable improvement in the results of treatment and an essential economic effect.
