Enterobacterales abundance in oral cancer patients and elevated clindamycin resistance rates in head and neck infections at a Hungarian Tertiary Hospital
Our evaluation revealed high percentages of Enterobacterales in patients with diseases such as osteonecrosis or oral cancer. Further investigation of the role of the oral microbiota and its potential impact on the morbidity of patients with advanced disease is needed. Substantial antimicrobial resistance rates, particularly to clindamycin, pose a major concern for treating bacterial infections in the head and neck region.
