Abstract:

It is clear that severe inflammatory diseases in the maxillofacial region represent a challenge for every clinician. Complications during their course can be fatal. In the conditions of bacterial resistance, a case that increasingly limits the opportunities for adequate behavior of practicing clinicians, using a multidisciplinary approach in drawing up a treatment plan is crucial.

We present a patient with severe phlegmon, covering several adjacent lodges in the maxillofacial region. He was treated at the Maxillofacial Surgery Clinic of St. Anna UMBAL – Sofia. A complex treatment was carried out in the conditions of bacterial resistance.

Keywords: abscess, phlegmon, bacterial resistance, maxillofacial area
