Resumen

Las diferentes especies del género Lactobacillus constituyen unas bacterias de bajo poder patógeno que se encuentran sobre todo en el tracto gastrointestinal, en el aparato genital femenino, y también formando parte de la flora anaerobia de la cavidad bucal. Debido a este bajo poder patógeno suelen estar implicadas en infecciones junto a otros microorganismos más virulentos, o en enfermos inmunocomprometidos. En este caso, Lactobacillus aparece de forma solitaria como agente productor de un absceso submentoniano en un paciente inmunocompetente.

Palabras clave:
Absceso submentoniano
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Inmunocompetente
Abstract

The different species of Lactobacillus genus are bacterias of a low pathogenicity. They are found in the gastrointestinal tract, the female genitourinary tract, and also as part of the anaerobic flora in the mouth. Due to this low pathogenicity, they are generally related with infections together with other with more virulent microorganisms, or in immunocompromised patients. In our case, Lactobacillus appears alone as an etiological agent in an immunocompetent patient with a submental abscess.

Key words:
Submental abscess
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Immunocompetent
