Neonatal Lemierre Syndrome: Youngest Reported Case and Literature Review.
Clinical Pediatrics 2018 March

After several days of hospitalization, she experienced acute decompensation in mental status despite having received targeted antibiotic therapy. Imaging revealed left peritonsillar/parapharyngeal space abscess, left venous thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein, and septic emboli of the lungs and brain consistent with Lemierre syndrome. Bedside needle aspiration of the parapharyngeal abscess confirmed MRSA involvement.

We present the youngest reported case of Lemierre syndrome and review the literature.
