Emergency right lower lobectomy for severe pulmonary abscess in a pregnant woman at the 25th week of gestation: a case report.

We experienced a rare case of a pulmonary abscess in a pregnant woman who needed an emergent right lower lobectomy to control the severe infection and obtain a correct pathological diagnosis. Under cooperation from an obstetrician and anesthesiologist, emergency pulmonary resection can be performed safely for serious abscess formation even for pregnant women who have several months left until delivery.
