    Abstract Pectus excavatum has never been reported to cause hypercapnic respiratory failure. In this report, we describe the first such case in a young woman with severe pectus excavatum who presented with chronic respiratory acidosis, pulmonary hypertension, and chronic cor pulmonale. An extensive diagnostic workup failed to uncover any other cause of respiratory acidosis, which led us to conclude that the severe chest wall deformity and the resulting severe restrictive defect were responsible for the development of chronic respiratory acidosis and cor pulmonale.

    Abstract Study objective: To assess the value of the initial microbiological studies (MBS), consisting of sputum Gram's stains, sputum cultures, and blood cultures, in the etiologic diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) without comorbidity.
    Design: A prospective study of 74 adult patients hospitalized with nonsevere CAP empirically treated according to the American Thoracic Society guidelines (ATS-GL) and evaluated with Gram's stains and cultures of valid sputum specimens and blood cultures.
    Setting: University-affiliated community hospital.
    Results: Gram's stain of a valid sputum specimen failed to identify the etiologic agent in all patients. Sputum cultures identified pathogens in only four patients (5%). The results of all blood cultures were negative. All patients responded to the initial empiric antibiotic coverage selected according to the ATS-GL, and the results of the initial MBS had no clinical impact.
    Conclusion: The initial MBS, such as sputum Gram's stains, sputum cultures, and blood cultures, have no value in the management of nonsevere CAP without comorbid factors.
