  A pilot study of 8 cases of lung empyema treated with taurolin, a new bactericidal agent, is reported. Rapid sterilization of exudates and favorable clinical course are discussed. Thanks to the absence of toxicity and its bacteriological efficacy, taurolin is a useful therapeutic agent in pleural empyema. Its use in the prophylaxis of complications in thoracic surgery is suggested.
