Abscesso periamigdaliano é definido como uma formação abcedada situada entre a cápsula tonsilar e os músculos constritores da amígdala. O abcesso periamigdaliano vem, na maioria das vezes, de uma periamigdalite. Febre alta, dor faríngea e dor à deglutição são os principais sintomas, mas ele pode também causar voz abafada. A úvula é desviada para o lado não afetado, e edema e vermelhidão em volta da amígdala afetada são evidentes. O exame bacteriológico do pus peritonsilar revela frequentemente o estreptococos beta hemolíticos do grupo A como bactéria aeróbica e a taxa de detecção de bactérias anaeróbicas também representa mais da metade dos casos. O tratamento consiste em antibioticoterapia e incisão e drenagem do abscesso. Os sintomas melhoram com este tratamento na maioria dos casos, enquanto alguns casos progridem para uma infecção profunda mortal do pescoço e abcesso mediastinal. Atenção especial é necessária se existem complicações sistêmicas como diabetes mellitus. | |||||||||||||||

Peritonsillar abscess is defined with abscess formation between the tonsillar capsule and the tonsillar constrictor muscles. Peritonsillar abscess mostly comes from peritonsillitis. Fever rise, pharyngeal pain and swallowing pain are the main symptoms, but, it also causes a muffled voice. Uvula is deviated to the unaffected side and swelling and redness around the affected tonsil is remarkable. Bacterial examination from the peritonsillar pus often reveal streptococcus group A beta-haemolytic as the aerobic bacteria and the detection rate of anaerobic bacteria also amounted to more than half. The treatment consists of antimicrobial therapy and incision and drainage of the abscess. The symptoms improve with above treatment in the most cases, while in some cases the abscess proceeds to a deadly deep neck infection and mediastinal abscess. If there are systemic complications such as diabetes mellitus, special attention is required. | |||||||||||||||
