In this paper, we investigated the etiologic factor of a pneumoempyema and determined its main pathogens sensitivity to antibiotics. We have found that the flora is polymicrobial, Streptococci showed the greatest sensitivity to third-generation cephalosporins (ceftazidime) antibiotics, fluoroquinolones (gatifloxacin, levofloxacin); staphylococci – a combination of carbapenem and digidropeptidazainhibitor (thienam), combination of penicillin and β-lactamases inhibitor (klaforan), fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin), the causative agent of pulmonary infection P. aeruginosa – a combination of carbapenem and digidropeptidaza inhibitor (thienam), a combined preparation of third generation cephalosporins and inhibitor of β-lactamases. Candida species were susceptible to amphotericin B.
