Abstract: Objective To explore the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of cervical abscess caused by foreign bodies. Methods Clinical data of 3 cases of cervical abscess caused by foreign body treated during 2012 and 2015 were retrospectively analyzed, and 49 similar cases were reviewed. Results Of the 49 cases, 48 received surgical treatment, and 46 had foreign bodies removed; 1 case received conservative treatment. Complications such as respiratory arrest occurred in 17 cases. All reported cases were cured. Conclusion Cervical abscess caused by foreign bodies is a critical condition with many complications. The key steps involve detecting and removing foreign bodies based on the history and imaging studies, and draining the abscess as soon as possible.
