“…Among the possible causes, odontogenic is one of the rarest, corresponding to approximately 12% of all brain abscesses [2,[8][9][10][11]. Most intracranial lesions associated with infections of oral origin involve cavernous sinus thrombosis, sometimes associated with brain abscesses.…”

“…Its incidence is estimated to be one to eight cases per 100,000 patients in the United States [1], and its etiology is varied and may arise from bacterial dissemination from a distant primary focus or from a direct contiguous invasion of an adjacent site. In most patients, the lesion is associated with predisposing factors, such as human immunodeficiency virus infection; use of immunosuppressive medications; history of trauma, dental infection, or surgical procedure; or disseminated systemic infection such as endocarditis or sepsis [1][2][3].…”

Além disso, existe um potencial de disseminação por meio dos espaços fasciais da região de cabeça, pescoço e tórax, quando não tratadas levam a infecções mais graves, como trombose do seio cavernoso e obstrução das vias aéreas (Fernandes et al, 2017;Ogle, 2017;Watanabea et al, 2019).…”
