title: [Purulent pleurisy due to Legionella bozemanii].
abstract: Since the advent of antibiotics, the bacteriological profile of empyema has changed. It is necessary to recall the recently discovered organisms. Although rarely mentioned in the literature, the Legionnellas may be causative in an empyema. We report a case of empyema to Legionnella bozemanii proven seriologically.
