ABSTRACT

Deep neck abscesses are secondary to the extension of dental or upper respiratory tract, which extends along the deep levels of deep cervical fascia. These infections have a high mortality if they are not diagnosed in an early stage. Its etiology is polymicrobial, consequently, treatment should be considered as aerobic and anaerobic coverage. The gold standard for evaluation is CT scanning, because it indicates the location, boundaries, and relation of infection to surrounding neurovascular structures.
