Necrotic pneumonia is typically due to a bacterial infection that begins to destroy the lung tissue. The most common type of bacteria that causes necrotic pneumonia is Streptococcus pneumoniae, though other species are increasingly being identified in sputum cultures of individuals with this serious form of pneumonia.iagnosis. You can typically diagnose necrotic pneumonia from an X-ray of the chest. A chest X-ray will show pockets or cavities of destroyed tissue, as well as a buildup of fluid in these areas of dead lung tissue. The lungs may also be surrounded by pus or pleural fluid due to the inflammation and tissue damage.
Anaerobic bacteria are germs that can survive and grow where there is no oxygen. For example, it can thrive in human tissue that is injured and does not have oxygen-rich blood flowing to it. Infections like tetanus and gangrene are caused by anaerobic bacteria. Anaerobic infections typically cause abscesses (buildups of pus), and death of tissue. Many anaerobic bacteria produce enzymes that destroy tissue and, sometimes, potent toxins. Besides bacteria, some protozoans and worms are also anaerobic.
