Abstract

Deep neck infection often develops due to upper respiratory tract and odontogenic infections. Gastrointestinal System perforation can occur for many reasons and is in need of early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment. In both cases late or incorrect diagnosis may lead to increased morbidity and high mortality.An inmate suffering from a deep neck infection which developed from a tooth abscess and resulted in multiple organ failure and septic shock died while being treated in a hospital. The autopsy confirmed "retropharyngeal abscess" and revealed in addition findings of duodenal perforation that was missed during clinical examination. According to Turkish Criminal Code, a finding of a misdiagnosis should not just be reported as the cause of death but clearly stated in the report.

Özet

Derin boyun enfeksiyonları, sıklıkla üst solunum yolu ve odontojenik enfeksiyonlara bağlı gelişebilirler. Gastrointestinal sistem perforasyonları ise birçok nedenle meydana gelebilir ve erken tanı ve acil cerrahi tedavi gerektiren durumlardır. Her iki durumda da geç veya yanlış tanı, artmış morbidite ve yüksek mortaliteye neden olabilir. Diş apsesine bağlı derin boyun enfeksiyonu gelişen ve yatarak tedavi edilen bir olgunun "septik şok ve çoklu organ yetmezliği" sonucunda hayatını kaybettiği bildirilmiştir. Otopside "retrofaringeal apse" tanısı doğrulanmış ve ilave olarak antemortem dönemde tanı almamış "duodenum perforasyonu" tespit edilmiştir. Otopside tıbbi uygulama hatasına ait bulgu tespit edildiğinde, bunun otopsi raporunda açıkça bildirilmesi gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.
