  Introduction: Mycobacterial infections were already described in antiquity. In our country there is an increase in the identification of certain species of nontuberculous mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium lentiflavum. In the pediatric population it is common to find lymphadenopathies caused by these microorganisms, which usually cause injuries to the head and neck.
  Case report: We present the case of an infant with a right submaxillary lesion. After performing analytical, radiological and anatomopathological tests, it was reached the diagnosis of overinfected right submaxillary sialoadenitis. It was established systemic antibiotic treatment and local treatment of the lesion on the lateral side of the neck, which showed fibrin and abundant and purulent exudate, with different products of moist healing environment according to the required needs.
  Conclusion: The lesion epithelialized after 80 days of follow-up in the wound advisory unit. The use of products that promote a moist environment has been shown as an adequate strategy to achieve the healing of the lesions.
