title: [Septic metastatic complications in facial furuncles and carbuncles].
abstract: According the information of Maxillo-Facial Surgery Clinic of Moscow Medical Academy the percentage of the patients with face furuncles and carbuncles from all the hospitalised is the following: 1994--4.5%, 1995--7.9%, 1996--11.4%, 1997--17.0%. That gives about 3.7 times during the last 2 years. The rate of dangerous for life septic metastatic complications in the course of such diseases considerably exceeds those at phlegmons. This figure has increased 2 to 2.5 times during the last 2 years. Two clinical cases which demonstrate possibility of bacterial thromboemboli spreading in face furuncles and carbuncles not only through small, but also through large blood circulation with formation of septic centres in organs are described. The treatment tactics for such patients requires a strictly individual approach. At slightest suspicion of the complication urgent hospitalisation of the patients for active conservative therapy is necessary. In case of purulent process extension surgery is indicated.
