Abstract

Head and neck infections normally arise from Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, or other anaerobic species, and infection by Salmonella spp. is rare. Patients with significant underlying conditions are at increased risk for the development of focal infection. This has been observed in patients with HIV, diabetes, and malignancy.
