摘要：

The use of talc in the infected pleural space has not been reported previously. Five patients who had empyema of the pleura in the fibrinopurulent stage and did not respond to treatment with tube drainage and antibiotics were treated by talc insufflation to stimulate pleural adhesions. Pleurodesis was achieved in all 5 patients, with complete recovery from empyema. No untoward effects were observed. These results suggest that talc pleurodesis may be an acceptable solution to the problem of empyema resistant to other methods of treatment.
