Abstract
Pneumothorax appears to be a common clinical state. Iatrogenic pneumothorax
occurs commonly after procedures such as transthoracic needle biopsy, pleural
biopsy, positive pressure ventilation, etc. Diagnosis of iatrogenic pneumothorax is
often delayed. Broad spectrum anti-infectives appear to be benefi cial in reducing
the infections, especially when chest drains are inserted. Garenoxacin, a potent
quinolone with its unique structural modifi cation appears to have an edge over other
respiratory quinolones.
