    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Thoracic Surgery

    Background:

    • Odontogenic mediastinitis is a severe complication of odontogenic infections.
    • It accounts for 0.3% of acute odontogenic infectious diseases.
    • Often develops in patients with chronic somatic diseases.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the characteristics and outcomes of odontogenic mediastinitis.
    • To identify risk factors and influencing factors for patient survival and quality of life.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 143 cases of odontogenic mediastinitis.
    • Evaluation of patient demographics, medical history, treatment timelines, and outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • The condition occurred in 0.3% of acute odontogenic infectious disease cases.
    • It was prevalent in 51.7% of patients aged 31-50 years, often with pre-existing chronic somatic diseases (80% of cases).
    • Treatment timing, intensity, and hospitalization duration significantly impacted outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • Prompt hospitalization and intensive treatment are crucial for managing odontogenic mediastinitis.
    • Long-term patient survival and quality of life are primarily determined by the effective compensation of underlying somatic diseases.
