Abstract

We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 160 hospitalized children admitted for acute complicated sinusitis and compared children with S anginosus– associated infection to children with other or no pathogens identified. The incidence of S anginosus –associated infections increased 12% per year, and infections with S anginosus are associated with increased morbidity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
