متن کاملMediastinal abscess resulting from dental infection.
A case of dental sepsis is presented which resulted in a deep neck infection and eventually caused a mediastinal abscess. The microbiology of such a mixed infection is briefly discussed with emphasis on the synergistic activity of the organisms. The anatomy of the fascial spaces is also described to draw attention to the possible routes of spread of this potentially life threatening condition.
