Lateralizing Lung Logjam: A Unique Case of Concomitant Lateralizing Lung Abscess, Parapneumonic Effusion, and Pneumothorax.

The management of lung abscesses is well documented in medical literature; however, the concomitant presentation of a lung abscess with associated pneumothorax and parapneumonic effusion, within the same laterality of the lungs, is rare, with limited data in the literature regarding the management of such presentations. Here, we present the case and management of a 67-year-old male with this unique presentation. The management of which involved the separation of the individual entities with individualized treatment based upon the level of involvement within the lung parenchyma. Additionally, employing a multidisciplinary approach involving interventional radiology, pulmonology, and internal medicine was essential in diagnosis and management.
