Zusammenfassung

Es wird über einen Spritzenabszeß in der Glutäalregion, hervorgerufen durchN. perflava, nach Injektion eines kortikosteroidhaltigen Mittels und oraler Gabe von D-Penicillamin berichtet. Als mögliche Infektionsmodi werden die hämatogene Aussaat vonN. perflava bei einer Tonsillitis oder unzureichende Desinfektion der Einstichstelle diskutiert.
