    Nosocomial parotitis, a rare postoperative complication, can be caused by gram-negative bacteria, particularly in intensive care patients. Prompt Gram

    Area of Science:

    • Infectious Diseases
    • Surgical Complications
    • Microbiology

    Background:

    • Nosocomial parotitis is an infrequent postoperative complication.
    • It typically affects elderly, debilitated, and dehydrated individuals.
    • Gram-positive pathogens are often cited as the primary cause.

    Observation:

    • This study details two cases of gram-negative parotitis.
    • A review of existing literature on this condition was conducted.

    Findings:

    • Gram-negative bacilli are common causes of nosocomial infections in intensive care settings.
    • Prompt Gram's staining of parotid pus is crucial for initial diagnosis.
    • Treatment should be guided by Gram's staining and confirmed by culture results.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the potential for gram-negative pathogens in nosocomial parotitis.
    • Emphasizes the importance of microbiological diagnostics for effective treatment.
    • Informs clinical practice for managing postoperative parotitis in critically ill patients.
