In most of the cases of space infections are secondary to an odontogenic infection. In space infection, spread occurs through the fascial plane because of the degradation of connective tissue by action of different enzymes produced by microorganisms. Different factors like age, nutritional status of the host, host defense, virulence of the microorganism play an important role in the spread of the infection. Sometimes it may take the fetal course if not treated on time because of its local and systemic complications. It should be treated as an emergency condition to prevent its rapid progression leading to fatal outcome. Here the case report describes an old lady suffering from fascial space infection and treated by incision and drainage. Incomplete removal of any odontogenic infection may cause the recurrence of the infection or infection that may spread to fascial spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
