In the clinic of surgical diseases, purulent-inflammatory processes of the maxillofacial region and neck occupy a leading place, posing a serious danger to health and life. The number of patients with severe phlegmon of the face and neck is increasing from year to year, which entails an increase in temporary disability, and in severe cases leads to death. Long-term observations of researchers dealing with this problem have shown that these patients make up about 50% of the bed capacity of maxillofacial and surgical departments, and the mortality rate reaches 7%. Cellulitis that spreads to several anatomical areas of the face and neck is particularly severe, since they are prone to progression and development of life-threatening complications: mediastinitis, sepsis, thrombophlebitis of the facial veins, thrombosis of the cerebral sinuses, etc.
