ABSTRACT

We describe a case of spontaneous nasal septal abscess (NSA) in a 9-year-old child. We also reviewed the literatures in recent years and summarized the characteristics of NSA, such as gender, age, inducement, pathogenic bacteria, treatment, and prognosis. We found that this boy reported by us has the most extensive abscess. May be the delay of treatment was relate d to the recent fluctuation of COVID-19 epidemic in China. Fortunately, with the help of surgery and anti-infection treatment, the boy was discharged from the hospital without septal perforation or saddle nose.
