Light abscess is an derived accumulation of pus in the tissue of light. A sharp abscess of the lung manifests pain in the chest, shortness of breath, cough with purulent wet and hemoplary. Clinical cure of the disease ends with formation in light scar tissue.

The concept of light abscess
Abscess (dust, ulotnik) - the accumulated accumulation of pus in various organs and tissues. Light abscess - abscess localized inside lightweight fabric complicating various diseases and pathological conditions.
The following molds of lung abscess are distinguished:
- acute purulent abscess lung
- Chronic lung abscess
- gangrenous
Causes of abscess
The abscesses and gangrenes of the lung occur as a consequence of the monumentity of the pulmonary tissue (due to atelectasis or inflammation), circulatory disorders in it, the direct effect of toxins on airless pulmonary tissue with impaired blood circulation. As a rule, the global flora arising from the abscesses resulting from this: staphylococci; streptococci; Intestinal wand; Mycobacteria, Mushrooms (Histoplasmas, Aspergillas, Cocidoids), Parasites (Ameba, Long Drugs).
The main manifestations of the disease
The sharp abscess of light is characterized by pain in the chest, shortness of breath, cough with purulent (silent) wet, often hemoplan. Sudden allocation of large quantity (full mouth) silent sputum - a sign of a breakthrough of an abscess cavity in bronchi. Characterized temporary improvement in the state of the patient.
Chronic abscess of lung characterizes the periodic exacerbation of the purulent process. In the period of remission, there is a marine cough, an increase in the amount of purulent sputum with the change of body position, possibly hemoptal, severe fatigue, weight loss, night sweating, etc.
Gangrena Lekhsky. Gangrea lung call the purulent-necrotic inflammation of the pulmonary fabric with pronounced signs of the spread of the lung tissue, leading to rapid necrosis.
Men from 30-35 years old among patients are prevailed, women are 6-7 times less often, which is associated with the peculiarities of the production activities of men, more common among them by alcohol and smoking, leading to a violation of the drainage function of the upper respiratory tract.
Multiple lung abscesses occur very hard. Multiple abscesses are usually preceded by a common inflammatory process in easy. Against this background in several sites, necrosis of the pulmonary fabric occurs, which between abscesses does not restore its normal structure. Using the state of developing purulent bronchitis with an abundant wet wet.
The following complications of the lung abscess are distinguished:
- Breakthrough in a pleural cavity with the development of popenemotrax
- Lonantic bleeding
- Tense valve pneumothorax
- Septicopemia
- Secondary bronchiectases
- amyloidosis
Clinical cure in most patients with lung abscess ends with formation in light scar tissue (pneumosclerosis). In the parenchyma of the lung at the same time there are no infiltrative changes. Patients feel almost healthy, work, but they are more likely than other people, there are cough, the release of mystery of sputum, elevated body temperature, which are interpreted as colds, exacerbation of bronchitis or bronchiectase. The main signs that distinguish focal pneumosclerosis from the lung abscess are a significantly lower frequency and severity of the exacerbation of the disease, the absence of purulent intoxication and infiltrative changes in the lungs.
