Journal Title: Indian Journal of Neonatal Medicine and Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Acute Neonatal Suppurative Parotitis (NSP) is a rare infection in neonates. To our knowledge, only few cases are reported in English literature with hardly any case from India. The most common causative organism is Staphylococcus aureus. Here, we report a rare case of acute NSP with late onset sepsis and complications such as facial palsy and pneumonia due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in a term neonate.
