Descending mediastinitis in Epstein-Barr virus infection.

J W Geerts1, E M van Driel2, M J F M Janssen3.   

Abstract

Our case report describes a previously healthy 34-year-old male who develops a descending mediastinitis as a complication of an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. The mediastinitis was suspected to have developed by a breakthrough of a peritonsillar abscess through the space between the alar and prevertebral space.
