Abstract

A case of a neck abscess caused by Salmonella Enteritidis in a 48 year-old diabetic patient is presented. Salmonella neck abscesses are rare and often occur in association with infection in other parts of the body. The condition is treated with drainage and antibiotics. It should be included in the differential diagnosis of abscesses of the head and neck - especially in immunosuppressed patients.
