Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Analyze in children and adults, risk factors in the onset of the APA. The main hypothesis focuses on the use of anti-inflammatory in the context of pharyngitis or sore throat before the symptoms of ABS. Secondary objectives:

1. \- Analyze the implementation of a rapid diagnostic test and its result on the occurrence of an ABS
2. \- Measure the frequency of prescription and describe the reasons for not prescribing an antibiotic for patients who consulted for a sore throat and having developed a PLA
3. \- Describe the microbial flora could puncture of patients hospitalized for APA

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

case

hospitalized patients, adult or child, including the diagnosis of APA was made, after consulting their physician.

No interventions assigned to this group

The control group

Two patients witnesses will be matched to each case:

Chronological criterion: consultation for a "sore throat" 10 days (± 3 days) before the date of hospitalization of cases, between 13 and J-J-7.

Age criteria: year of birth ± 5 years Geographical criteria: living in the same department, failing in an adjacent Department Social criteria: beneficiary or otherwise of the CMU, to avoid a selection bias leading social most frequently at the onset of the APA

No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* clinical existence of a PLA (phlegmon), validated by a senior ENT, usually (but not necessarily) following a request by an emergency. The visible appearance to the merits throat must justify puncture. Cases will be included whether or not they had consulted for a "sore throat" in the 10 days preceding the date of diagnosis
