Upon examination, the patient was noted to have erythematous swelling of the left posterior oropharyngeal wall with friable mucosa. Palpation of the neck was negative for lymphadenopathy or masses. CT scan of the neck demonstrated a large fluid collection in the retropharyngeal space that extended laterally into the left parapharyngeal space, as well as anteriorly to the left thyroid cartilage (FIG 1 & 2).
