Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

3. Introduction
Space infections of head and neck are very common
in Oral and maxillofacial practice. Although most of
the infections can be managed successfully with
minimal or no complication, some can produce
serious morbidity or even death. Depending on the
virulence of microorganisms and host resistance,
bacterial infections have the potential to spread
beyond the bony confines of jaw bones into
surrounding soft tissues.
4. They flow following the path of least resistance ,
into loose areolar connective tissue of fascia
surrounding the muscles. This tissue is destroyed by
hyaluronidases and collagenases produced by
bacteria, thus opening the potential SPACES
surrounding the muscles. Thus such innocuous
periapical infections have a potential to develop
into life-threatening deep fascial infections.
5. Early extraction of offending tooth and incision
and drainage tend to shorten the usual course of
infection and minimize the chances of further
complications.
In new era of antibiotics, incidence of death
due to infection is reduced but due to developing
drug resistance, there is outbreak of new range of
infections requiring invention of newer antibiotics.
6. For accomplishment of proper management,
maxillofacial surgeon must understand
physiologic and anatomic factors that influence
the spread and localization of dental infections.
7. History
Burns (1811) first described fascial space as an
anatomical entity and gave their clinical significance.
In 1836 Wilhelm Frederick von Ludwig described his
observations concerning repeated occurrences of
inflammation of throat. Hence most severe orofacial
Infection at that time was named as Ludwigs angina.
Greek author Parker(1879) gave vivid descriptions of
infections which produced inflammation oral cavity,
tonsil and larynx.
8. The term “ Quinsy “ was given by Muckleston in
1928.
In 1929 Mosher called Viscerovascular space as
“Lincoln highway”
Space of the body of mandible is described
by Coller & Iglesias. (1935)
13. Functions of the fascia
• Acts as a musculovenous pump-
• Limits outward expansion of muscles as they
contract.
• Contraction of muscles compresses the
intramuscular veins (push the blood towards the
heart).
• Determine the direction of spread of infection
14. Infections and Host defense
• In establishing presence of an infection, interaction
occurs among three factors.
1. Host
2. Environment
3. Microorganism
In state of Homeostasis , balance exists among
these three and disease occurs when imbalance
exists.
15. Host vs Microbe relationship
Infection occurs when
host is immunocompromised
or when pathogenesity
and number of microbes
Invading host is more.
16. Stages of infection
Infections generally pass through these 4 stages before they
undergo complete resolution.
• Stage I – Inoculation
Time between exposure of microorganism and the first set of
symptoms . During 1-3 days, Swelling is soft, mildly tender,
doughy in consistency
• Stage II – cellulitis
Chronic stage-fistulous/sinus tract or osteomyelitis
During 3-7 days, centre of lesion begins to soften
17. Stage III –After day 5 underlying abcess undermines
skin or mucosa making it compressible.
Stage IV - Finally there is resolution of abcess that
may be spontaneous or after surgical drainage. During
resolution phase, the involved region is firm on
palpation due to process of removing tissue
and bacterial debris.
18. Differences between cellulitis and abscess
Characteristics Cellulitis Abscess
Duration. Acute phase Chronic phase
Pain Severe and generalised Localised
Size Large. Small
Localization Diffuse borders Well-demarcated
Palpation Doughy / indurated Fluctuant
Presence of pus No Yes
Degree of seriousness Greater Less
Bacteria. Aerobic Anaerobic/mixed
20. Staphylococcus causes –osteomyelitis and abscess
Streptococcus causes- cellulitis
• In an abscess, common causative organisms are
anaerobic (Higher percentage) & Aerobic.
• Fusobacterium + strep. Milleri – cause aggressive
infections. Eg.,.mediastinum.infections.
21. Fascial spaces
Definition -
The fascial spaces in head and neck are the
potential spaces between the various layers of
fascia normally filled with loose connective
Tissue and bounded by anatomical barriers, usually
of bone, muscle or fascial layers.
(Ref – Moore-1975)
22. CLASSIFICATION OF FASCIAL SPACES
GRODINSKY AND HOLYOKE (1938)
Space 1 – Superficial to superficial fascia
Space 2 – Group of spaces surrounding cervical strap muscles
lying superficial to sternothyroid-thyrohyoid division
of middle layer of deep cervical fascia.
Space 3 – Space lying superficial to visceral division of middle
layer of deep cervical fascia
Space 3A – Carotid sheath space or viscerovascular space
(Lincoln’s High way)
Space 4 – Space lies between alar & prevertebral division of
posterior layer of deep cervical fascia (Danger space)
Space 4A – Posterior triangle space posterior to carotid sheath
Space 5 - Prevertebral space
Space 5A- Space enclosed by Prevertibral fascia.
23. • Hollinshead’s classification(1958)

52. Ludwig’s Angina
• The original description of the disease was given by Wilhelm
Friedrich von Ludwig.
1. Rapidly spreading gangrenous cellulitis.
2. Originates in the region of submandibular gland but never
involves one single space and
3. Arises from extension by continuity and not by lymphatics.
4. Produces gangrene with serosanguinous, putrid infiltration
but very little or no frank pus.
53. Ludwig’s Angina

and rapidly spreading cellulitis of
the submandibular and sublingual
spaces bilaterally and of the
submental space.

100. Diagnosis of the soft tissue radiograph for
retropharyngeal space infection
Step I:
• Look at the prevertebral or
retropharyngeal soft tissue
shadow.
• In the area of 2nd and 3rd CV,
shadow should be less than 7mm
in width.
• In the area of 6 cervical vertebra
soft tissue shadow is behind the
trachea and includes the thickness
of esophagus making it approx.
Children – 14mm wide
adults – 22mm wide
101. Step III.
- Finally, the lateral radiograph will show the curve of the cervical spine
- Loss of the curve is a strong indication of retropharyngeal space infection.
- Tipping of the head forward in sniffing position to maintain an open airway.
103. Prevertebral space
• Is formed by the deep cervical fascia.
• It extends from skull base to coccyx
• Facia attaches to the transverse process of the cervical vertebra
dividing this space into anterior and posterior compartments.
Anterior compartment contains:
-Vertebral bodies.
-Spinal cord.
-Vertebral arteries.
-Phrenic nerve.
-Prevertebral and scalene muscles
Posterior compartment contains:
-Posterior vertebral elements.
-Paraspinous muscles.
105. Plain Film
• Diagnostic imaging starts with a plain film study
of pharyngeal or cervical airways.
• Views taken
– AP view
– Lateral view
• Plain film findings:
- In the AP view the normal cervical airway should
appear symmetrical over the middle third of the
cervical spine.
- Lateral view – In the adult the width of the
prevertebral soft tissue should not exceed 7mm
at the C3 level and 20mm at C7 level.
AP view
Lateral view

CNS symptoms
• level of consciousness
• Evidence of meningeal
irritation
(severe headache)

eye signs
109. Controversies
• Does the Investing Layer of the Deep Cervical Fascia
Exist?
- Nash, Lance M.Sc November 2005
Journal of American society of anesthesiologists
The placement of the superficial cervical plexus block
has been the subject of controversy. Although the
investing cervical fascia has been considered as an
impenetrable barrier, clinically, authors went on a trial and
found that the placement of the block deep or superficial to
the fascia provides the same effective anaesthesia.
110. Controversies
• Conclusion of study:
This study provides anatomical evidence to
indicate that the so-called investing cervical fascia
does not exist in the anterior triangle of the neck.
Here the author’s findings strongly suggest that
deep potential spaces in the neck are directly
continuous with the subcutaneous tissue.
111. Controversies
• Surgical vs ultrasound-guided drainage of deep neck space
abscesses: a randomized controlled trial: surgical vs
ultrasound drainage
-Vincent L Biron, George Kurien
Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery 2013,
• Introduction -
Deep neck space abscesses are relatively common head and
neck surgery emergencies and can result in significant
morbidity . Traditionally, surgical incision and drainage (I&D)
with antibiotics has been the mainstay of treatment. Some
reports have suggested that ultrasound-guided drainage is a
less invasive and effective alternative in selected cases.
112. Results
• Seventeen patients were recruited .They found a
significant difference in mean Length of hospital
stay between patients who underwent USD
(3 days) vs I&D (5 days).They identified significant
cost savings (41%) in comparison to I&D.
• Conclusions
Ultrasound drainage of deep neck space
abscesses in a certain cases is effective, cost
saving & safe as it is less invasive. Still this
remains a controversial topic whether to follow
Incision and drainage or ultrasound drainage.
113. Recent advances
Effective antibiotics for severe infections caused
by resistant bacteria are needed urgently. The
speed with which bacteria develop resistance to
antibiotics, in contrast with the slow development
of new drugs, has led some experts to develop
newer antibiotics.
