title: [Acute pneumonia in patients with multiple primary malignant neoplasms].
abstract: The authors review 35 cases of acute pneumonia (AP) in 30 patients with multifocal cancer. As a rule, AP was focal, ran a moderate or severe course, arose acutely with high temperature, chill, cough, purulent discharge. Auscultation registered weak vesicular breath, moist rale. Among pathological agents prevailed associations of pneumococci with gram-negative flora. AP resolved for 3-4 weeks in 2/3 of the patients, the rest of them developed lingering disease. From the point of view of antibacterial drugs efficacy, wide-spectrum drugs are preferable.
