Resumen

ACOSTA BATISTA, Bárbara; PEREZ CORDOVA, Félix Rodolfo  y  DIAZ ALVAREZ, Manuel. Acute neonatal suppurative submandibular sialadenitis. Rev Cubana Pediatr [online]. 2015, vol.87, n.3, pp.374-381. ISSN 0034-7531.

There is not a single report in the Cuban scientific literature on neonates with acute suppurative submandibular sialadenitis. With the objective of presenting and describing the clinical characteristics of a newborn with this disease, this report presented the case of a newborn diagnosed with acute suppurative submandibular sialadenitis, which was admitted to the neonatology service of “Juan Manuel Marquez” university pediatric hospital and is the only one seen at this institution in 22 years (1992 through 2013). Acute neonatal suppurative submandibular sialadenitis is rare in term newborn as it occurred here; it can be easily recognized by focal inflammatory signs in addition to purulent secretion in the mouth through Wharton's duct. Staphylococcus aureus is the regular causative agent of this infection.

Palabras clave : suppurative submandibular sialadenitis; newborn; Staphylococcus aureus; neonatal infections.
