Lemierre syndrome is a rare disease that is most often caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum We present a case caused by Prevotella intermedia in a young, healthy man, complicated by multiple cavitary lung lesions, loculated pleural effusions requiring chest tube placement and trapezius abscess. Our case highlights (a) P. intermedia as a rare cause of Lemierre syndrome and (b) clinical response to appropriate antimicrobial therapy may be protracted.
