Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) quarantines on children hospitalizedfor odontogenic cervicofacial infection. The data of patients aged 1 month-18 years, who were followed up with the diagnosis ofodontogenic cervicofacial infection in Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Hospital between January 2019 and June 2021 wasexamined, retrospectively. Thirteen patients with a mean age of 8.5±3.8, 7 of whom were male were included in the study. Three of the patients were diagnosed in the pre-COVID-19 period and 10 of them were diagnosed in the second year of COVID-19. Five patients had a known history of dental caries. On physical examination, it was determined that all patients had dental caries in the area corresponding to the infection site. Four patients required abscess drainage, all of whom were presenting in the second year of COVID-19, we isolated Eikenella corrodens, Streptococcus anginosus and Streptococcus intermedius microorganisms in 3 patients. The mean duration of hospitalization was 5.3±3 days. In conclusion, COVID-19 quarantine causes an increase in odontogenic cervicofacial infection requiring intravenous antibiotics and abscess drainage.
COVID-19隔离期间儿童牙源性颈面感染住院病例增加
本研究的目的是评估2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)隔离对因牙源性颈面感染住院的儿童的影响。回顾性分析2019年1月至2021年6月期间在Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart大学医院随访并诊断为牙源性颈面感染的1个月-18岁患者的数据。共纳入13例患者,平均年龄8.5±3.8岁,其中男性7例。3例患者在新冠肺炎前期确诊,10例患者在新冠肺炎第二年确诊。5例患者有已知的龋齿史。在体格检查中,确定所有患者在感染部位对应的区域都有龋齿。4例患者均为新冠肺炎第二年出现的脓肿引流,其中3例患者分离出腐蚀艾肯氏菌、血管链球菌和中间链球菌微生物。平均住院时间5.3±3 d。综上所述,COVID-19隔离导致牙源性颈面感染增加,需要静脉注射抗生素和脓肿引流。
