Material y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo, transversal, descriptivo, realizado en el hospital de infectología del centro Médico Nacional La Raza durante el periodo del 2002 al 2004, con revisión de los expedientes clínicos de pacientes tratados por cirugía maxilofacial con diagnóstico de fascitis necrotizante de cabeza y cuello, en relación a edad, sexo, enfermedades concomitantes, pieza dental involucrada y espacios anatómicos afectados.  Resultados: Se encontraron 29 casos reportados como fascitis necrotizante odontogénica durante dicho periodo. Quince casos correspondieron al género femenino (51.72%) y catorce al masculino (48.27%). la edad promedio fue de 53.79 años con un intervalo de edad de 17 a 82 años. La enfermedad concomitante más frecuente fue la diabetes mellitus en 16 casos (55.17%). la pieza dental más frecuentemente identificada como origen de la fascitis fue el 3er molar inferior en 11 casos (37.93%). El espacio anatómico más afectado fue la cara anterior de cuello en 26 casos (89.65%), la mortalidad fue de 17.24% con 5 pacientes que fallecieron.  Conclusiones: La fascitis necrotizante odontogénica en esta investigación, es una patología frecuente en nuestro medio, a diferencia de lo reportado en la literatura mundial. En nuestro estudio el género femenino predominó ligeramente sobre el masculino lo cual es diferente a lo informado en la literatura mundial. La pieza dental causal y los espacios anatómicos afectados coinciden entre lo hallado en nuestro estudio y lo reportado en la literatura mundial.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract:  Objective: To determine the frequency of head and neck odontogenic necrotizing fasciitis.  Materials and methods: A retrospective, transversal and descriptive study was carried out based on the records in the Infectology area of the centro Medico Nacional La Raza between 2002 and 2004; the files of patients treated by the maxillofacial surgery department with the diagnosis of necrotizing fasciitis were reviewed and the predilection of sex, age, concomitant diseases, tooth and more frequent anatomical spaces involved were analyzed.  Results: 29 cases of necrotizing fasciitis of odontogenic origin during the period from 2002 to 2004 were reviewed. in 29 cases fifteen were presented in female patients (51.72%) and fourteen in male patients (48.72%). the average age was 53.79 with a range from 17 to 82 years. the most common concomitant disease was diabetes mellitus in 16 cases (55.17%). the most frequent involved tooth was the lower third molar in 11 cases (37.93%). the most frequent anatomical space involved was the anterior zone of the neck in 26 cases (89.85%). Five patients died and the mortality was 17.24%.  Conclusions: Necrotizing fasciitis of odontogenic origin is a frequent disease in this hospital, different from what is reported in the literature that shows it as a rare disease. in our study the prevalence in female patients was higher than in male patients, this differs from the literature, where is mentioned that this disease is more frequent in male patients. the most frequent tooth involved is the same as in the literature. the affected anatomical spaces are the same in our study than in the references.]]></p></abstract>
