An unusual complication of chemotherapy: an abscess in the pterygopalatine fossa
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2007
Abstract
Abscesses of the pterygopalatine fossa are extremely rare. The cases reported in the literature are all secondary to dental or periodontal disease. We present a case of an abscess in this site which was a complication of chemotherapy and was the result of haematogenous spread.
