Özet
Acute neonatal suppurative parotitis (NSP) is a rare condition, charac-terized by parotid swelling and other local inflammatory signs. Common predisposing conditions include dehydration, Stensen’s duct stasis, local trauma, immune suppression and prematurity. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common pathogen isolated from infants with NSP. Here, we present a case of unilateral suppurative parotitis successfully treated with ampicillin in a 7-day-old infant. In conclusion, acute NSP should be kept in mind in cases of swelling and tenderness in parotid gland during neonatal period.
