    Author: Li KI, Kiernan S, Wald ER, Reilly JS.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 1984 Dec; 74(6):1054-7. PubMed ID: 6334271.
    Abstract:
    Infections of the uvula are infrequently recognized and have been previously described only in association with group A streptococcal pharyngitis or Haemophilus influenzae type b epiglottitis. Three cases of H influenzae type b bacteremic uvulitis are described. In suspected cases of H influenzae type b uvulitis, a lateral neck radiograph should be performed and parenteral antibiotics initiated.
