Résumé

Despite advancements in preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic activities in medicine, inflammatory processes of the central nervous system remain a significant problem, posing a serious threat to life and health. Purulent central nervous system infections are unique, including abscesses of the brain and spine, which are severe infections occurring in 0.4% to 0.9% of 1000 patients worldwide. Central nervous system abscesses have varying etiology. For example, organized, encapsulated abscesses of the brain are a unique group of inflammatory processes in the central nervous system caused by inflammation around the teeth in 3% to 10% of cases. Sometimes, the condition of patients with brain abscesses is severe and life-threatening. Therefore, detecting and eliminating all causes early, including those potentially resulting from odontogenic infections, is important; accurate and early diagnosis enables appropriate treatment. This paper presents a review of the information available in the literature on brain abscesses and their relationship with odontogenic foci of infection in the oral cavity.
