Due to demographic changes, the number of geriatric patients has increased in recent years. The aim of this study was to analyse odontogenic abscesses in elderly patients and to differentiate them from non\u2013elderly patients regarding clinical presentation, bacterial analysis and therapy. We retrospectively reviewed 1,173 inpatients with odontogenic abscesses from 2014 to 2020. Patients were divided into elderly patients (\u226570 years,\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009240) and non-elderly patients (&amp;lt;70 years,\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009933). Demographics, clinical parameters, laboratory values and treatment parameters were analysed. Overall, elderly patients had a longer hospital stay (LOS) (median 4 [range 28] vs. 3 [range 22] days) and more complications (9.6% vs. 7.9%) than non-elderly patients, although these differences were not statistically significant. Peri-\/submandibular (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.015), parapharyngeal (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and oral base infections (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.036) were associated with significantly longer LOS in the elderly. Chronic renal failure (CRF) was associated with LOS (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.010) and complications (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.006). In the elderly, c-reactive protein (CRP) correlated significantly with LOS (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and more complications (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.036). This study identifies anatomical spaces and CRF as outcome predictors of odontogenic abscesses in the elderly. In addition, CRP level may serve as a predictor of complicated course in elderly patients.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/froh.2024.1486182","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,2]],"date-time":"2024-12-02T01:23:19Z","timestamp":1733102599000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Outcome predictors of odontogenic abscesses in the elderly"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Daniel","family":"Kaercher","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philipp","family":"Thelen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mike","family":"Ruettermann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lei","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Axel","family":"Hamprecht","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e208","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcms.2013.01.020","article-title":"Comparison of multi-space infections of the head and neck in the elderly and non-elderly: part I the descriptive data","volume":"41","author":"Zheng","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Craniomaxillofac Surg"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"64","DOI":"10.1089\/sur.2012.178","article-title":"Severe odontogenic infections: causes of spread and their management","volume":"15","author":"Igoumenakis","year":"2014","journal-title":"Surg Infect (Larchmt)"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"581","DOI":"10.1097\/SCS.0000000000001465","article-title":"Comparison of multi-space infections of the head and neck in the elderly and non-elderly people, part II: the influencing factors of the outcomes","volume":"26","author":"Zheng","year":"2015","journal-title":"J Craniofac Surg"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"499","DOI":"10.1111\/odi.12164","article-title":"Epidemiology and variables involved in dental abscess: survey of dental emergency unit in trieste","volume":"20","author":"Ottaviani","year":"2014","journal-title":"Oral Dis"},{"key":"B5","first-page":"143","article-title":"Odontogenic infections.
