Resumen

Presentamos un caso de absceso parafaríngeo en una niña de 5 años, secundario a una extensión local de un absceso periamigdalino. Los signos típicos del absceso periamigdalino, desplazamiento amigdalar hacia la línea media y desviación de la úvula hacia el lado contralateral, eran menos evidentes de lo habitual. En este caso, con afectación parafaríngea, el tratamiento consistió en el drenaje del absceso a través de la amigdalectomía, asociando cobertura antibiótica intravenosa.
