Abstract

Odontogenic and oropharyngeal infections are
relatively common in the cervicofacial region. In rare
cases, odontogenic or peritonsillar abscesses may
spread through the deep fascial cervical spaces and
cause life-threatening complications. Odontogenic
infection is the most common cause of deep neck
infections and it accounts for 43% of the cases.
Early diagnosis, immediate antibiotic treatment, and
surgical drainage are the basis of therapeutic success.
Deep neck infections are potentially life threatening
complications if they are not diagnosed in time and
treated quickly. This case report presents clinical,
radiological features and treatment of the spread of
abscesses through cervical spaces of an unusual case
of deep neck infection that was caused by the secondary
infection of the root remnants after extraction.

Abstract

Odontojenik ve orofaringeal enfeksiyonlar baş boyun bölgesinde oldukça yaygındır. Nadiren odontojenik ve peritonsiller abseler derin fasyal servikal boşluklar yoluyla yayılabilir ve hayatı tehdit eden komplikasyonlara sebep olabilir. Odontojenik enfeksiyonlar derin boyun enfeksiyonlarının en sık karşılaşılan nedenidir ve olguların %43’ünü oluşturmaktadır. Erken teşhis, acil antibiyotik tedavisi ve cerrahi drenaj terapötik başarının temelini oluşturmaktadır. Erken teşhis edilmediği ve hızlı bir şekilde tedavi uygulanmadığı takdirde derin boyun enfeksiyonları potansiyel olarak hayatı tehdit eder. Bu olgu bildirisinde, diş çekimi sonrasında kalan kök parçasından kaynaklanan sekonder enfeksiyonun sebep olduğu derin boyun enfeksiyonu vakasının klinik, radyolojik özellikleri ve tedavisi sunulmuştur
