Melioidosis is an emerging entity in India. Though it is a potentially fatal disease, prognosis is excellent with early detection and appropriate management, especially of localized infections like abscesses of the head and neck area. We report nine cases of focal abscesses in the head and neck region due to , the causative agent of melioidosis, presenting to our hospital within a span of two-and-half years. Since melioidotic abscesses in the cervicofacial and head and neck region are likely to be confused with cold abscesses caused by in a tuberculosis-endemic country like India, increased vigilance is necessary because of the widely divergent treatment modalities of the two disease entities.
类鼻疽在印度是一种新出现的疾病。尽管它是一种潜在的致命疾病，但早期发现并进行适当治疗，尤其是对头颈部局部感染如脓肿的治疗，预后良好。我们报告了9例因类鼻疽病原体导致的头颈部局灶性脓肿病例，这些病例在两年半的时间里陆续就诊于我院。在印度这样一个结核病流行的国家，由于颈部面部和头颈部的类鼻疽脓肿可能会与由[未提及的病原体]引起的寒性脓肿相混淆，鉴于这两种疾病实体的治疗方式差异很大，因此有必要提高警惕。
