Abstract:

Objective   To investigate  the clinical characteristics of  foreign body induced retropharyngeal  abscess. Methods   Fourteen cases  of  foreign body induced  retropharyngeal  abscess  were  analyzed  retrospectively.  The  clinical  features were compared and summarized.  Results   ① The oneset age was  mostly  middle-aged; ② The sites and  ranges of  the   lesions  could be clearly  displayed  by  CT. ③ The key of treatment was  to  remove the  foreign  body  and  drain the abscess. Conclusion   The  Middle-aged  is  a  high incidence  group  for  foreign body induced retropharyngeal abscess. CT should  be  regarded  as the first choice to evaluate the lesion. The  approach  of  lateral neck incision  is the  main method to treat foreign body induced retropharyngeal abscess.
