    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Pathology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Context:

    • Analysis of 129 autopsy cases of lobar pneumonia.
    • Examined trends over the past 20 years.
    • Assessed demographic variations and etiological shifts.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of lobar pneumonia.
    • To compare current findings with historical data.
    • To evaluate diagnostic accuracy and clinical presentation.

    Summary:

    • Lobar pneumonia occurred in 2.5% of autopsy cases, with no significant change in frequency over 20 years.
    • Male mortality increases significantly after age 40. Clinical diagnosis was made in only 16% of cases.
    • Gram-negative organisms are increasingly prevalent causative agents, and chronic courses affect approximately 15% of patients.
