Case Studies

Pancoast's syndrome due to chronic pneumonia by Pasteurella multocida

J Ribas, L Lores, J Ruiz, V Ausina, and J Morera

Infectious causes of Pancoast's syndrome are extremely rare. We describe the case of a patient with Pancoast's syndrome due to chronic pneumonia resulting from Pasteurella multocida. The patient was not immunosuppressed and had had no contact with animals. The diagnosis was made by transthoracic needle aspiration and institution of therapy with cefuroxime-axetil resulted in resolution of his symptoms.
