Abstract
|
|
|
Infections of the orbit in children usually present as a complication of sinusitis and can result in blindness and
death. The treatment of orbital complication from sinusitis is surgical intervention whenever antibiotic
treatment fails. Recently we experienced 3 cases of subperiosteal abscess. Two out of 3 childrens with proven
surgical drainage. In these cases, orbital complications were resolved via transnasal endoscopic drainage of the
abscess. The third case was successfully managed with intravenous antibiotics. So, we report these cases with a
review of literature.
