*Commonly found post mortem

−

*Can be a consequence of:

−

~~# [[Pulmonary Embolism, Thrombosis and Infarction|'''Septic emboli''']] lodging in the pulmonary vessels~~

−

~~# '''Extension''' from severe focal suppurative [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Bronchopneumonia|bronchopneumonia]]~~

−

~~# '''Aspiration''' of foreign material (see [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Aspiration pneumonia|aspiration pneumonia]])~~

−

~~# Direct '''penetration'''~~

−

*The pattern of abscessation can suggest the aetiology i.e. multiple widespread abscesses suggest a haematogenous origin; isolated cranioventral abscesses usually arise from suppurative pneumonia.
