Objective.
To examine whether Gram staining can influence the choice of antibiotic for the treatment of peritonsillar abscess.
Methods.
Between 2005 and 2009, a total of 57 cases of peritonsillar abscess were analyzed with regard to cultured bacteria and Gram staining.
Results.
Only aerobes were cultured in 16% of cases, and only anaerobes were cultured in 51% of cases.
Mixed growth of aerobes and anaerobes was observed in 21% of cases.
The cultured bacteria were mainly aerobic Streptococcus, anaerobic Gram-positive cocci, and anaerobic Gram-negative rods.
Phagocytosis of bacteria on Gram staining was observed in 9 cases.
The bacteria cultured from these cases were aerobic Streptococcus, anaerobic Gram-positive cocci, and anaerobic Gram-negative rods.
The sensitivity of Gram staining for the Gram-positive cocci and Gram-negative rods was 90% and 64%, respectively.
The specificity of Gram staining for the Gram-positive cocci and Gram-negative rods was 62% and 76%, respectively.
Most of the Gram-positive cocci were sensitive to penicillin, but some of anaerobic Gram-negative rods were resistant to penicillin.
Conclusion.
When Gram staining shows only Gram-positive cocci, penicillin is the treatment of choice.
In other cases, antibiotics effective for the penicillin-resistant organisms should be used.
