Abstract

<p>Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome characterized by hypoxemia and pulmonary edema not fully explained by cardiac failure or fluid overload, caused by various underlying conditions. ARDS has a high mortality rate of 27 to 45 percent. It may be caused by odontogenic infection, but very few patients with ARDS caused by infection after tooth extraction have been reported. Here, we report the case of a patient who had ARDS caused by phlegmon after tooth extraction.</p>
