Spontaneous descending retropharyngeal abscess.

M Rahman1, J R Savage, C A Lee.

Retropharyngeal abscesses are rare but can occur spontaneously in adults and are potentially life threatening. Such a diagnosis should be considered so that aggressive treatment can be initiated as soon as possible to avoid life threatening mediastinal complications.
