Abstract

Actinomycosis is a rarely diagnosed suppurative infection caused by Actinomyces spp., most frequently by A. israelii. Actinomyces naeslundii is an uncommon agent in extra-oral actinomycosis. In this paper, a 54-year-old male case of actinomycosis of the neck due to A. naeslundii who had undergone laryngectomy because of carcinoma is presented.

Özet

Aktinomikoz, Actinomyces'enn, daha sıklıkla da A. israelii'nin etken olduğu ender görülen irinli bir infeksiyondur. Actinomyces naeslundii ağız dışı aktinomikoz olgularında sık rastlanmayan bir etkendir. Bu yazıda, larinks tümörü nedeniyle İarenjektomi geçiren 54 yaşındaki bir erkek hastada ameliyattan sonra gelişen A. naeslundii'ye bağlı boyun aktinomikoz olgusu sunulmuştur.
