Abstract
Fusobacterium infections and Lemierre syndrome are traditionally associated with pharyngitis. We report 3 cases of Fusobacterium sinusitis that resulted in Pott puffy tumor. One of these cases also had Lemierre Syndrome. We encourage expansion of the clinical spectrum of Lemierre syndrome to include complicated Fusobacterium sinusitis.Entities:
