摘要
Empyema necessitans is a rare complication of a pleural effusion that occurs when infected fluid dissects into the chest wall from the pleural space. Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Actinomyces israelii have previously been the most commonly reported etiologic agents. This case presents an empyema necessitans secondary to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) following an influenza A infection in a child.
