[Suppurative parotitis caused by a foreign body in a 4-year-old child].

The authors report a case of unilateral acute suppurative parotiditis in which the endo-buccal examination allowed the removal of a hair from the parotid duct. The histologist demonstrated that the hair belonged to the child and that its removal was sufficient to ensure cure.

[Necrotizing fasciitis and parotitis. Apropos of a case].

A rare lesion, but one particularly serious because of its evolution, necrotizing fasciitis must be treated surgically by wide debridement extending if necessary to the aponeurosis, even if the affection involves the face. A case with combined parotiditis and necrotizing fasciitis is used as a basis for review of the affection.

[Microbiological research on the secretion of the normal parotid glands and in acute and chronic non-mumps parotitis in children].

The qualitative and quantitative compositions of the microbial flora of the parotid gland were investigated in 42 children with nonepidemic parotiditis. The pathogenic properties of the microbial flora were the most pronounced in acute purulent and purulent necrotic parotiditis as compared to those in aggravation and remission of chronic parotiditis. In children with acute or chronic recurring parotiditis during its aggravation there was observed a significant increase in the number of the coccal organisms in the mixture of saliva and secretion of the parotid gland. Direct relationship between the aggravation activity and the number of the microbes was noted which testified to lowering of the protective functions of the oral cavity tissues. With an account of the presence of microorganisms in the clinically intact salivary glands it was concluded that the microbial factor was secondary in etiology of parotiditis. Quantitative estimation of bacteria in the mixture of saliva and parotid gland secretion is important for antibacterial therapy of the disease which is advisable when 1 ml of secretion of the affected glands contains 10(5) microorganisms. Their antibiotic sensitivity tests are obligatory.
