Abscess of the parotid gland
Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2009, Vol 63, Issue 2
Abstract
Infl ammatory processes developing in the region of parotid gland can be specifi c or non-specifi c. Non-specifi c infl ammation of bacterial or viral origin, which almost always are secondary to infl ammatory processes in the region of oral cavity and pharynx, can be caused by presence of sialoliths in parotid gland or in the excretory duct. In the paper we presented 11 patients treated for the reason of parotid gland abscesses. Etiology, the course of the disease, and the method of treatment were analyzed.
