  • Title: Recovery of anaerobic bacteria from a post-traumatic nasal septal abscess. A report of two cases.
    Author: Brook I.
    Journal: Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol; 1998 Nov; 107(11 Pt 1):959-60. PubMed ID: 9823846.
    Abstract:
    This report presents 2 children (boys, 11 and 9 years old) who had post-traumatic nasal septal abscesses. Cultures for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria revealed Peptostreptococcuus magnus and a beta-lactamase-producing Prevotella intermedia in the first patient, and Peptostreptococcus anaerobius, Streptococcus intermedius, and Prevotella melaninogenica in the second patient. Anaerobic bacteria may play a role in nasal septal abscesses.
