Abstract：
Pulmonary actinomycosis is an uncommon clinical entity that can be challenging to diagnose due to its non-specific symptomatology. Misdiagnosis and delayed treatment may result in invasive procedures and extended antimicrobial treatment courses. We report a case involving a 65-year-old female with poor oral dentition admitted for acute respiratory failure subsequently found to have a left-sided pleural effusion and perihepatic abscess formation. Cytopathology examination and microbiology studies confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary actinomycosis.

肺放线菌病是一种罕见的临床实体，由于其非特异性症状，可能具有挑战性。误诊和延迟治疗可能导致侵入性手术和延长抗菌治疗疗程。我们报告了一例病例，涉及一名65岁的女性，因急性呼吸衰竭入院，口腔牙列不良，随后发现左侧胸腔积液和肝周脓肿形成。细胞病理学检查和微生物学研究证实了肺放线菌病的诊断。
