 Parapharyngeal infections in the pediatric cases are very rare. We encountered a 4 years and 6 months old male patient with deep neck infection originated in the parapharyngeal space. The patient didn't respond to antibiotic therapy in a local hospital. Contrast-enhanced CT showed a 20×25mm low attenuation mass with ring enhancement in the left side of the retropharyngeal space. Surgical drainage externally through a submandibular incision, followed by antibiotic administration. Thenafter he was recovered about one week after the operation.

 Early open surgical drainage is recommended in severe cases with no response to antibiotic therapy.
