Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Deep neck infections (DNIs) can lead to life-threatening disease. However, the detailed pathophysiology remains unclear due to its rarity and only a few reports have directly compared DNIs in children and adults. The present study aimed to reveal the clinical differences between DNIs in children and adults. DNIs in children feature different characteristics from those in adults regarding severity, antecedent illness, bacteriology, and clinical management. Diabetes was associated with higher prevalences of multispace spread of infection, complications, and failure to identify pathogenesis, with risk ratios (RRs) of 1.96, 2.42, and 1.29, respectively. Specifically, in some cases encountering difficulty in clinical management, molecular technique succeeded in identifying unique bacteria.
