“…Parotitis occurs most frequently due to retrograde bacterial flow from the oral cavity into the gland via Stensen's duct 2. As in other GBS cases described,4 8 10 the definitive pathogenesis remains unclear in this case, but the documented GBS bacteraemia and the absence of purulent discharge give better support to the hypothesis of haematogenous dissemination of an unknown primary focus of infection, with secondary parotid bacterial focalisation.…”

Acute neonatal parotitis (ANP) is a rare condition, characterised by parotid swelling and other local inflammatory signs. The most common pathogen isStaphylococcus aureus, but other organisms can be implicated. We describe the case of a 13-day-old term newborn, previously healthy, with late-onset group BStreptococcus(GBS) bacteraemia with ANP, who presented with irritability, reduced feeding and tender swelling of the right parotid. Laboratory evaluation showed neutrophilia, elevated C reactive protein and procalcitonin, with normal serum amylase concentration. Ultrasound findings were suggestive of acute parotitis. Empiric antibiotic therapy was immediately started and adjusted when culture results became available. The newborn was discharged after 10 days, with clinical improvement within the first 72 h. AlthoughS. aureusis the most common pathogen implicated in ANP, GBS should be included in the differential diagnosis.

“…Furthermore neonatal suppurative parotitis seems to be more prevalent in males, with a rate of 3:1 [1]. The most common pathogen is S. aureus (55% of patients) [1,6,[11][12][13][14], also in preterm babies [15]. Other less frequent agents are other Gram-positive cocci (Viridans streptococci, Streptococcus pyogenes, Peptostreptococcus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus), Gram-negative bacilli (16%) and rarely anaerobic bacteria, such as Bacteroides melaninogenicus and Fusobacterim nucleatum (4%) [1].…”

Childhood chronic recurrent bacterial sialadenitis. Clinical characterization RESUMENLa sialoadenitis recurrente es el segundo cuadro inflamatorio más frecuente que afecta a la glándula parótida, precedida por la parotiditis viral. Esta afección tiene un cuadro clínico muy similar a la sialoadenitis, motivo por el cual se debe considerar dentro de los diagnósticos diferenciales. La sialoadenitis recurrente se caracteriza por episodios periódicos de inflamación y aumento de volumen de la glándula parótida acompañados de fiebre y malestar general que alternan con intervalos de remisión en los que la glándula es clínicamente asintomática. En el Instituto Nacional de Pediatría consideramos al concepto Sialoadenitis bacteriana crónica recurrente de la infancia como la definición más específica y completa para referirse a esta enfermedad. Debido a su recurrencia decidimos escribir este artículo para señalar sus características clínicas. ABSTRACTRecurrent sialadenitis is the second most common inflammatory condition that affects the parotid gland, preceded by viral parotitis; pathology is it clinically very similar to sialadenitis, for which reason in should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Recurrent sialadenitis is characterized by periodic inflammatory episodes increased volume of the in the parotid gland, fever and malaise, alternating with intervals of remission, in which the gland is clinically asymptomatic. In our experience at the National Institute of Pediatrics, we consider the term chronic recurrent bacterial sialadenitis of childhood, as the specific and complete definition of this disease. In view of its recurrence, we decided to write this article indicating clinical characteristics of this pathology.

Acute neonatal suppurative parotitis: a case report and review of the literature

Abstract: Neonatal suppurative parotitis (NSP) is an uncommon disease. Information about the etiopathogenesis and management of the disease is very limited. Here, we describe a newborn who developed NSP due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa and who was treated successfully with antibiotics.
