Pneumonia is common; however, severe necrotising pneumonia is very rare, and no previous cases complicated by pyopneumothorax have been described.

He presented with clinical signs of sepsis, developed acute kidney injury (AKI), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring intubation and ventilation. Initial computed tomography (CT) of the thorax showed right pyopneumothorax, left small pyopneumothorax, bilateral large pulmonary nodules of varying size, some cavitating with progression on serial imaging. Blood cultures grew GCBHS, later showing\n                      <jats:italic>Streptococcus dysgalactiae<\/jats:italic>\n                      subsp.\n                      <jats:italic>equisimilis<\/jats:italic>\n                      (\n                      <jats:italic>SDSE<\/jats:italic>\n                      ). Bilateral chest drains were required, with eventual bilateral video\u2010assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) with washout due to nonresolution. After a prolonged intensive care stay and a community course of antibiotics, his follow\u2010up CT of the thorax is improving, and he is planning to return to his studies at agricultural college.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Invasive infection with GCBHS is associated with higher mortality and prolonged hospital admission and may be zoonotic.
